The SonarQube analysis task failing when checking out multiple repositories in single Azure DevOps YAML pipeline. The pipeline runs on a windows VM hosted build agent. There is a single project setup in a SonarQube Community instance running on a separate VM. We only require analysis on the second repository’s code. The first repository source is used to run pwsh scripts in the same YAML pipeline. The base directory path seems to get overwritten from “C:\azp\agent\_work\14\My-Api-Proj\Source\Services” to “C:\azp\agent\_work\14\s” as soon as I try to checkout the second directory. We have tried specifying the sonar.sources and projectBaseDir without any success but, as soon as we disable the checkout of the first repository the analysis task works perfectly. Why can’t I checkout multiple repositories in one YAML pipeline when only running analysis on a one of them? Pipeline and logs as follows: **template.yaml:** ```yml parameters: - name: jobName type: string - name: repositoryName type: string - name: repositoryResourceName type: string - name: slnBuildPath type: string - name: testProjRootPath type: string - name: agentPool type: string - name: projectKey type: string jobs: - job: ${{ parameters.jobName }} pool: ${{ parameters.agentPool }} continueOnError: false workspace: clean: outputs steps: - checkout: repoMigrations displayName: Checkout Migrations Repo path: Migrations - task: PowerShell@2 displayName: Run script DbMigrations/DBDeployment.ps1 inputs: filePath: $(Agent.BuildDirectory)/Migrations/DbMigrations/DBDeployment.ps1 workingDirectory: $(Agent.BuildDirectory)/Migrations/DbMigrations arguments: '-connection_string "$(az-psql-we-migrations-connection-string)"' continueOnError: false - checkout: ${{parameters.repositoryResourceName}} clean: true submodules: recursive persistCredentials: true path: ${{ parameters.repositoryName }} # Sonar prepare - task: SonarQubePrepare@5 inputs: SonarQube: 'SonarQubeConn' scannerMode: 'MSBuild' projectKey: ${{ parameters.projectKey }} extraProperties: | sonar.sources=$(Agent.BuildDirectory)\${{ parameters.repositoryName }}\${{ parameters.testProjRootPath }} sonar.projectBaseDir=$(Agent.BuildDirectory)\${{ parameters.repositoryName }}\${{ parameters.testProjRootPath }} sonar.verbose=true # Build .sln - task: DotNetCoreCLI@2 displayName: Build ${{ parameters.slnBuildPath }} inputs: command: build projects: $(Agent.BuildDirectory)\${{ parameters.repositoryName }}\${{ parameters.slnBuildPath }} arguments: '--configuration ${{ parameters.buildConfiguration }}' continueOnError: false # Run unit tests - task: DotNetCoreCLI@2 displayName: Run Unit Tests inputs: command: test projects: | $(Agent.BuildDirectory)\${{ parameters.repositoryName }}\${{parameters.testProjRootPath}}\**\*Tests.csproj # Sonar analyse - Fails when checking out multiple repos - task: SonarQubeAnalyze@5 displayName: Run Code Analysis - task: SonarQubePublish@5 displayName: Publish Quality Gate Result ``` ```log Starting: SonarQubePrepare ============================================================================== Task : Prepare Analysis Configuration Description : Prepare SonarQube analysis configuration Version : 5.19.1 Author : sonarsource Help : Version: 5.19.1.

Hi, Welcome to the community! > [@g3orge](#): > > The base directory path seems to get overwritten from “C:\azp\agent\_work\14\My-Api-Proj\Source\Services” to “C:\azp\agent\_work\14\s” as soon as I try to checkout the second directory. Is this an environment variable you’re talking about? Because analysis works on the directory it’s invoked from. Since we’re talking about .NET analysis here, the bulk of analysis happens during the build, which you seem to have redacted from the log you posted. Could you post the whole thing, start to finish? Also, since you have doubts about what values analysis is running with I think it’s worth a run with `sonar.scanner.dumpToFile=[path to file]` so you / we can see exactly what those values are. (Hopefully you have access to the work directory post-run to retrieve the file.)   Ann
