I get following error in the console.

Anyone help me how to solve this ?

Answer 1

The build failure is being thrown because Maven cannot file a POM file....... Why are you running Maven, when you are trying to use the ANT Sonar task?

The new functionality (introduced by Sonar 2.6) enables you to run Sonar analysis from ANT as follows:

$ ant sonar

This of course assumes that you have added a new target to your build.xml called "sonar". For examples of this I recommend the Sonar ANT task documentation:

Answer 2

I got it! its done by Sonar Hudson Plugin! its always looking for Maven Pom.xml!
