Sonarqube TFS 2017 Extension

Francisco · September 11, 2019, 9:18pm

Hello,
I have a TFS 2017 update 3, I downloaded the sonarqube extension from the marketplace, this is the link:

The extension states that it works with TFS 2017 update 3; however when I try to install it on the TFS server, I get the following error:

9/11/2019 5:11:27 PM - Supported Products :
9/11/2019 5:11:27 PM - Microsoft.VisualStudio.Services.Cloud
9/11/2019 5:11:27 PM - Version :
9/11/2019 5:11:27 PM - Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Server
9/11/2019 5:11:27 PM - Version : [15.2,)

The file I downloaded from the market place is: SonarSource.sonarqube-4.7.2.vsix , this is what is available at the marketplace.

My TFS is not version 15.2
My TFS is 15.117

I think, 15.2 might be TFS 2018.

does anyone knows of an extension for TFS 2017 older than version 4.7.2 ? if so, how can I get that extension? I have searched with no luck, so far.

Thanks,
Francisco.

Hi,

We currently have an issue with something on manifest files that prevent newest installation of the extension (4.7+) in TFS 2017.

You can find all of the release and their respectives vsix files here : https://github.com/SonarSource/sonar-scanner-vsts/releases

You can install 4.6.3 from there, which should be fine with your version.

A newest version is in the pipe, hopefully fixing this.

Thanks.

Hi, thanks for your reply.

I tried 4.6.3; but still did not work. It seems that is not detecting TFS 2017 for some reason.
The error logs was showing ‘ssms’ detected, I went ahead ahead and install the latest ssms and now it does not show in the error logs. I tried all the way to 3.0.0 extension version , and still does not installs.
Below is the content of the Install Log, perhaps that would help to determine what the issue is, see below for your reference:

Hi,

Do you have the exact build version of your TFS installed ? You can go to the “three dots” button on the top right corner, then “about”.

Thanks.

Hi,

yes, this is what I have:

Thanks.

I’m not sure that you can install the extension with VSIX installer. Can you try install it directly from the TFS UI ?

Francisco · September 16, 2019, 7:02pm

Hi,

You are correct the VSIX installer is not able to install the extension, that was the problem. Thank you for the link to TFS UI. I did the TFS UI “upload extension”, to upload and then install within TFS and it worked. Now I see the new Sonarqube (not deprecated) build tasks.

Thanks for your help,

Francisco.
