Sure. This is what I have
- The pipeline looks like this:

- The prepare step is this
- task: SonarQubePrepare@5
inputs:
SonarQube: 'IPIPE SonarQube'
scannerMode: 'MSBuild'
projectKey: 'CT-XXXX'
extraProperties: |
sonar.c.file.suffixes=-
sonar.cpp.file.suffixes=-
sonar.objc.file.suffixes=-
sonar.exclusions=**/*.xml,**/*.xaml,**/*.yml,**/*.csproj,**/*.sln,**/*.slnf,**/*.cu,**/*.ptx,**/*.g.cs,**/*.dcm,**/*.png,**/*.ipv,**/*.ipp,**/*.ipx,**/*.IRSTBL,**/*.java,**/*.jar,**/*.html,**/*.css,**/*.js,**/*.py,**/*.cshtml,Tables/,Tools/,tools.p/,pipelines/,documentation/
- The Analyze Step is this
steps:
- task: SonarQubeAnalyze@5
- task: SonarQubePublish@5
inputs:
pollingTimeoutSec: '300'
which then shows:
Starting: SonarQubeAnalyze
==============================================================================
Task : Run Code Analysis
Description : Run scanner and upload the results to the SonarQube server.
Version : 5.15.0
Author : sonarsource
Help : Version: 5.15.0. This task is not needed for Maven and Gradle projects since the scanner should be run as part of the build.

and this is all information I have. Maybe there is some switch I can turn on to find at least the path to see whats wrong.
Thanks for your help.
