Sonar server can not be reached. Please check the parameter 'sonar.host.url'

Question

I am trying to run a maven build for sonarqube:

mvn clean install sonar:sonar -Dsonar.host.url=http://ourserver.lan:9000 -Dsonar.jdbc.url=jdbc:h2:tcp://ourserver.lan:9092/sonar -Dsonar.jdbc.username=admin -Dsonar.jdbc.password=xxx

But I am getting the error:

Sonar server can not be reached. Please check the parameter 'sonar.host.url': http://ourserver.lan:9000

The server itself is reachable, I get to the main page of sonarqube if I enter the URL in the browser.

What I configured:

• General - Server base URL - Set to "http://ourserver.lan"
• Security - Allow users to sign up online

Am I missing anything?

Answer 1

SonarQube 5.1 is not compatible with Maven 2.
