Sonar analysis using gradle with scanner plugin fails with 503/502 error

Must-share information (formatted with Markdown):

  • which versions are you using (SonarQube, Scanner, Plugin, and any relevant extension)

SonarQube: * Community Edition Version 9.5 (build 56709)
Scanner: sonar-scanner-cli:4.6.2.2472
Gradle: 7.3
Java: 17.0.2

  • what are you trying to achieve
    Doing a sonar analysis using gradle with sonar scanner plugin on one of our git project based on Java.

  • what have you tried so far to achieve this

Sonar sever used here is provisioned on a kubernetes based POD using the helm project (GitHub - SonarSource/helm-chart-sonarqube)

Step followed:

  1. Setup a new sonar server instance on k8s
  2. Do a new sonar analysis against our Java project using gradle cli command

Hello @anil_vijay ,

Welcome to Sonar Community :sonar:

This error is typical of corporate or proxy configuration issues. Please check with your network/infratructure team and check that you can communicate (i.e. curl) from your machine where analysis is located to the SonarQube server.

Hi Joe,

According to the logs I guess sonar analysis completed and uploaded, in fact prior to failing with 503 error the same api call returned 200 OK 5 times (eg: GET 200 http://xxx.ibm.com/devsonarqube/api/ce/task?id=AYJe4Z-W5yr_OQLZjvgO ). Do you think still we need to look into the network configuration?

Yes, there is some issue with networking still. Every 5 minutes is a check on that task and something just stopped it. Does this failure occur after 30 minutes on each quality gate status check? Is there a pattern to this failure in your analyses?

I recommend checking your CE logs at DEBUG level on SonarQube to see what issue could be occurring:

  • Change your Log Level to DEBUG (Administration > System > Log Level) - no need to restart SonarQube
  • Reproduce your issue
  • Change your Log Level back to INFO
  • Zip and attach your $SQ_HOME/logs folder here

logs.zip (400.3 KB)
I have uploaded the logs as you suggested.
Few more observation are,

  • If the project is very small the analysis is successful and quality gate status as well updated properly
  • But if the project is fairly large it is getting errored out and I suspect it is leading to the restart of the sonar server pod instance.

@Joe
Any update on this? Did you get a chance look at the logs?

Hi @Joe
I have got the issue resolved by increasing the resource limit of the pod container.
Thanks for all the support.

Thanks for the update and notifying me of the resolution! Glad you resolved it.

Ok sure thanks for that input
