version :sonarqube: :8.6.0.39681 Maven:3.6 Sprint tool suite:4.7.1.RELEASE fixing some error so i’m new at sonar, its only been 2 day since i try sonar ,i already run the server using startsonar bat i already create server and token for it but ever single time i try to analyze there is always an error saying not inside a git work tree nevertheless we didnt really use any git in our code(maybe thats a problem?). I Search for the same problem on this forum that already fix the same error, and they are using projectBaseDir,si i try to add them but to no avail the error is still there. here the error: > [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.7.0.1746:sonar (default-cli) on project ad1treasury-api: Not > inside a Git work tree: D:\my\_kom\api → [Help 1] > org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.7.0.1746:son > ar (default-cli) on project ad1treasury-api: Not inside a Git work tree: D:\my\_kom\api > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute (MojoExecutor.java:215) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute (MojoExecutor.java:156) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute (MojoExecutor.java:148) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleModuleBuilder.buildProject (LifecycleModuleBuilder.java:117) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleModuleBuilder.buildProject (LifecycleModuleBuilder.java:81) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.builder.singlethreaded.SingleThreadedBuilder.build (SingleThreadedBuilder.java:56) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleStarter.execute (LifecycleStarter.java:128) > at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.doExecute (DefaultMaven.java:305) > at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.doExecute (DefaultMaven.java:192) > at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.execute (DefaultMaven.java:105) > at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.execute (MavenCli.java:957) > at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.doMain (MavenCli.java:289) > at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.main (MavenCli.java:193) > at jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0 (Native Method) > at jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke (NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) > at jdk.internal.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke (DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) > at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke (Method.java:566) > at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.launchEnhanced (Launcher.java:282) > at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.launch (Launcher.java:225) > at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.mainWithExitCode (Launcher.java:406) > at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.main (Launcher.java:347) > Caused by: org.apache.maven.plugin.MojoExecutionException: Not inside a Git work tree: D:\my\_kom\api > at org.sonarsource.scanner.maven.bootstrap.ScannerBootstrapper.execute (ScannerBootstrapper.java:67) > at org.sonarsource.scanner.maven.SonarQubeMojo.execute (SonarQubeMojo.java:104) > at org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultBuildPluginManager.executeMojo (DefaultBuildPluginManager.java:137) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute (MojoExecutor.java:210) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute (MojoExecutor.java:156) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute (MojoExecutor.java:148) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleModuleBuilder.buildProject (LifecycleModuleBuilder.java:117) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleModuleBuilder.buildProject (LifecycleModuleBuilder.java:81) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.builder.singlethreaded.SingleThreadedBuilder.build (SingleThreadedBuilder.java:56) > at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.LifecycleStarter.execute (LifecycleStarter.java:128) > at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.doExecute (DefaultMaven.java:305) > at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.doExecute (DefaultMaven.java:192) > at org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven.execute (DefaultMaven.java:105) > at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.execute (MavenCli.java:957) > at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.doMain (MavenCli.java:289) > at org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.main (MavenCli.java:193) > at jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0 (Native Method) > at jdk.internal.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke (NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) > at jdk.internal.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke (DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) > at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke (Method.java:566) > at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.launchEnhanced (Launcher.java:282) > at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.launch (Launcher.java:225) > at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.mainWithExitCode (Launcher.java:406) > at org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.main (Launcher.java:347) > Caused by: org.sonar.api.utils.MessageException: Not inside a Git work tree: D:\my\_kom\api > [ERROR] > [ERROR] > [ERROR] For more information about the errors and possible solutions, please read the following articles: > [ERROR] [Help 1] [MojoExecutionException -

Hi, Welcome to the community! Your first step here is to comment-out that properties section you’ve added to the pom; you shouldn’t need to set any of those values. Then make sure you’re running the analysis from the git checkout directory; presumably this should correspond to the project root. As a trivial example, your command history would look something like this: ```auto $ git clone git@github.com:Organization/repo.git # clone happens... $ cd repo $ mvn clean install sonar:sonar # analysis happens... ```   HTH, Ann ---

Hi, You don’t have to use any particular SCM or an SCM at all. The here problem is that there _is_ an SCM involved but the Scanner can’t collect data from it. If you’d like to turn off SCM integration (not recommended!!!) you can disable it in the project settings or via the analysis properties: `-Dsonar.scm.disabled=true` on the analysis command line.   Ann ---

Alright i get a work Around for this problem which is using sonar scanner Which you can find how to set up here [https://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SONARQUBE52/Installing+and+Configuring+SonarQube+Scanner](https://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SONARQUBE52/Installing+and+Configuring+SonarQube+Scanner) ---
