SonarQube Server 10.8 released

Hi all,

Sonar is proud to announce the release of the SonarQube Server 10.8.
This version includes a product rebrand and many new capabilities. In this version, we introduce the Multi-Quality Rule (MQR) mode and Standard Experience, custom Quality Gates for AI Code Assurance, the first architectural rules detecting circular dependencies in Java classes, and many other exciting features. Details are in the official announcement and the Release Notes.

In addition, there are a few other items to note in the release:

  • We’ve introduced 2 modes to enhance your experience. The Standard Experience maintains the issue categorization (bug, vulnerability, and code smell) from SonarQube 9.9. The Multi-Quality Rule (MQR) mode uses the newer categorization and severities, enabling issues to have multiple qualities. In both cases, you can override the default severity levels. Read more about it in this blog post.
  • When relying on the automatic user and group provisioning with GitHub or GitLab, admins can now see which users are assigned to each group.

You’ll find more details in the upgrade notes and full details in the full release notes. Please open new threads for any questions you have about these or other features.

As usual, download is available at sonarsource.com. Docker images are also available on Docker Hub.

The next release of SonarQube Server will be the new LTA version, we hope you are as excited as we are!

Hi @Chris, the official announcement link is broken.

Thanks you @aravindnss. This is now fixed.

I downloaded and extracted sonarqube-developer-10.8.0.100206.zip.
But it does not seem to contain conf/sonar.properties.
Can I get that default file from somewhere?

Hi @Tokunaga,

Welcome to the community and thanks for this report!

This is was an unintended side-effect of our re-packaging. We’re working on the fix. In the meantime, you should be able to download the Enterprise Edition zip and get the file from there.

 
Thx,
Ann

Hi,

I can’t find 10.8-community tag on docker hub, but there is one called just “community”. Is it on purpose?

When tried that one, the version on Sonarqube page says
“Community Build v24.12.0.100206”

Best Regards

Hi @marcinavionworx,

We’ve made some changes with the SonarQube Community Build, formerly known as SonarQube Community Edition.
You’ll find more details in this community post and in this blog post.
You’ll also find a release announcement dedicated to the SonarQube Community Build here.

Okay. Thanks for your reply.

I am trying upgrading from 10.7 to 10.8 version using Helm but The upgrade was expected to create a Docker image with sonarqube:24.12.0.100206-community, but instead, it created the image sonarqube:10.8.0-community, which is not available in Docker Hub.

Could you please suggest how to resolve this issue?

@Venkat_Reddy

Confirming. Installing chart version 10.8.0 with Helm will fail as the container reference for the Pod does not exist (yet?). Where the default is edition: "community". (default value to be deprecated it says)

After applying the chart:

kubectl get events -n sonarqube

shows

...

And indeed the image is not present: https://hub.docker.com/_/sonarqube/tags?name=10.8.0-community as indicated work in progress in issue reference above.

Hi,

I’m currently using v10.7 of SonarQube Community and trying to upgrade to v10.8. However I’m unable to find the Community download of this version. The only editions available are Developer / Enterprise and Data-Center. Please can you help?

Cheers,

Tom

Hey @tomf

You should target Community Build 25.1.
