Hi @Prosenjit_Manna ,

sonarqube can not be run as root. this is a security measure. you need to create a dedicated user for sonarqube with less privileges, change the owner of the sonarqube installation directory to this user and execute the start.sh script as this user.

hope that helps :slight_smile:

Able to fix by this command

sudo sysctl -w vm.max_map_count=262144
