We are trying to run sonarqube (msbuild) to scan the source code.using MSBuild.SonarQube.Runner.exe. After the end command it shows execution failure with no obvious reason why. Below is the log:

Hi,

Your version is very much past EOL. You should upgrade to either the latest version or the current LTS at your earliest convenience. Your upgrade path is:

6.7.1 → 7.9.6 → 8.9.10 → 9.8 (last step optional)

(Note that the release of a new LTS, 9.9, is expected on 7 Feb 2023.)

You may find the Upgrade Guide and the LTS-to-LTS Upgrade Notes helpful. If you have questions about upgrading, feel free to open a new thread for that here.

In addition to upgrading the server, you should make sure you have the latest scanner version installed, and make sure you’re using a supported Java version. Even for the very latest version, Java 19 isn’t supported yet for analysis.
