Windows 10 install failure

SonarQube

The whole idea of an installation is to install the product. If it has a dependency, the installation should check for that & if missing, install it.

Installing a local instance of SonarQube

You can evaluate SonarQube using a traditional installation with the zip file or you can spin up a Docker container using one of our Docker images. Click the method you prefer below to expand the installation instructions:

From the zip file

  1. Download the SonarQube Community Edition zip file.

  2. As a non-root user, unzip it, let’s say in C:\sonarqube or /opt/sonarqube.

  3. As a non-root user, start the SonarQube Server:

On Windows, execute:

C:\sonarqube\bin\windows-x86-64\StartSonar.bat

Hi,

Welcome to the community!

I guess your point is that the quick-start guide should mention installing Java? Very fair point! I’ll ping the docs folks.

If for some reason, an actual installer is too much, it really should have a link to the correct version of Java:

No, really, what is the correct version of the Java dependency?

Java 11. This is listed in the requirements documentation of sq: Prerequisites and Overview | SonarQube Docs

Hi Gunnar,

Thanks for your comments. I’ve created a ticket to address this in the documentation.

Thanks,
Mike

You have not provided a link to the specific version your software requires either in this conversation or in the ticket. Mentioning it isn’t enough. You’re also not answering the question: Why haven’t you created an installer that takes care of installing it?

@DefinitelyNotTobi already indicated that you need to have Java 11 installed. Here is a link for your convenience: Java Archive Downloads - Java SE 11
We prefer not to package a Java runtime with our application so there’s no point in having an installer.

The fact that getting a link was like pulling teeth indicates that the company thinks the target audience for this product is only Java developers. So much for 27 Languages

Not having an installer is legitimate & good, but then don’t have any dependencies! Even when a product doesn’t have any dependencies, it should have a little light weight installer that downloads, unzips & creates a shortcut entry.

You “prefer not to package a Java runtime”, so I prefer not to use this product.
