Sonarqube : The 'report' parameter is missing

Question

I am using MSBuild. I have Java 8 installed.

I am running the following commands:

SonarQube.Scanner.MSBuild.exe begin /k:"ABC" /d:sonar.host.url="http://localhost:9000"  /d:sonar.login="8b839xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx6b00125bf92"  /d:sonar.verbose=true

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\MSBuild\15.0\Bin\msbuild.exe" /t:rebuild

SonarQube.Scanner.MSBuild.exe end /d:sonar.login="8b839xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx6b00125bf92"

The last step fails:

ERROR: Error during SonarQube Scanner execution
ERROR: The 'report' parameter is missing
ERROR:
ERROR: Re-run SonarQube Scanner using the -X switch to enable full debug logging.
The SonarQube Scanner did not complete successfully
12:53:21.909  Creating a summary markdown file...
12:53:21.918  Post-processing failed. Exit code: 1

The MSBuild version is greater than 14.

Java 8 is properly installed. Documentation indicates that Java 8 is adequate.

1. Any idea on what could be wrong?
2. Where do I add the -X switch? I tried on all 3 statements

Update :I installed Java SDK 9. Still same issue. Update :With verbose logging and using /n naming parameter:

Answer 1

I've struggled the same problem with SonarQube and I've finally found a solution: You need to restart sonar service after using evaluation token.
