The sonar scanner, cannot run

SonarQube Server / Community Build

I am unable to complete the prerequisite command:
‘dotnet tool install --global dotnet-sonarscanner’
I have dontnet installed, and running this from the dotnet install dir.
I also have the SDK installed, and this file downloaded: dotnet-sonarscanner.6.0.0.nupkg

some details:

C:\Program Files\dotnet>dotnet --version
8.0.101

C:\Program Files\dotnet>dotnet nuget list source
Registered Sources:

  1. Package source 1 [Enabled]
    D:\scanner\dotnet-sonarscanner.6.0.0.nupkg

Whenever I attempt to run ‘dotnet tool install --global dotnet-sonarscanner’ , I get some flavor of the following:

Unhandled exception: Microsoft.DotNet.Cli.NuGetPackageDownloader.NuGetPackageNotFoundException: dotnet-sonarscanner::8.0.101 is not found in NuGet feeds D:\scanner\dotnet-sonarscanner.6.0.0.nupkg".

Im stuck.

Hey there.

dotnet nuget list source should, in my understanding, return some URLs pointing to JSON files, not to a local .nupkg file.

What happened to the defaults?
