SonarScanner.MSBuild SSL/TLS

Recently the c build-wrapper bypass was removed causing us to have to use the build-wrapper for our builds. Prior to removal I used the sonar-scanner.bat, but when I put the path for the output directory I get the following error:

INFO: EXECUTION FAILURE
INFO: ------------------------------------------------------------------------
INFO: Total time: 24.394s
INFO: Final Memory: 42M/457M
INFO: ------------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR: Error during SonarQube Scanner execution
ERROR: Illegal char <:> at index 8: output=C:\Jenkins\workspace\NCITE.Test.174\output\/build-wrapper-dump.json
ERROR: 
ERROR: Re-run SonarQube Scanner using the -X switch to enable full debug logging.

For some reason it does not like the colon and adds a forward slash before the json file.

So, I switched to attempting to use the SonarScanner.MSBuild. However, the problem is that we have to pass a punch of pki/truststore information in order for the build server to connect with the SonarQube server. My SONAR_SCANNER_OPTS looks like this:

-Xmx4096m -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStoreType=jks -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStore=C:\path\to\local.jks -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=somepassword -Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=C:\path\to\certs.jks -Dhttp.proxyHost=ip -Dhttp.proxyPort=port -Dhttps.proxyHost=ip -Dhttps.proxyPort=port

I’m getting the following error:

We are at a loss as to what to do at this point.

SonarScanner.MSBuild version: 4.5.0.1761
SonarScanner version: 3.2.0.1227

I am bumping this because I see no way around the issues that I am having. I could really use help here. Thanks

Hello @gbishop,

in the end, did you manage to analyze your project?

No, we’ve shelved analysis for that project for a bit. We’ll be returning to this in the near future though.

Hi @gbishop,

sad to hear that and glad to know you will look at it in the near future.
