To be clear, you configured SonarLint to use connected mode, but you didn’t have your VPN started so it’s unable to connect? To me this seems like a straightforward error; you probably need to shut down the IDE, start your VPN, and try again. Am I missing something?

Hi Jeff. The only problem with it is that IntelliJ asks me to submit an error report every time I’m doing work offline; nothing that stops me from working, but it is slightly bad UI and a minor irritation. Thought I would press the report button for once, since I get the prompt so often.

Hi @Al_MacGruer

The issue has already been fixed in our master code repository. This will be released “soon” (hopefully end of the week).
FYI: https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SLI-478

Thanks for reporting the issue!

Thank you, for being so quick to get a fix in for a minor issue!
