The following projects do not have a valid ProjectGuid and were not built using a valid solution (.sln) thus will be skipped from analysis

Question

When you are building a dotnet core project with SonarQube you may be facing the error in the log:

WARNING: The following projects do not have a valid ProjectGuid and were not built using a valid solution (.sln) thus will be skipped from analysis...

What should you do?

Answer 1

As dotnet core projects (.csproj) will not have <ProjectGuid>...</ProjectGuid> tag specified in the default template this needs to be manually added.

So you need to edit the .csproj file like this:

<PropertyGroup>   <!-- other properties here -->    <!-- SonarQube needs this -->   <ProjectGuid>{E2CEBBAF-6DF7-41E9-815D-9AD4CF90C844}</ProjectGuid> 

Make sure to place your own GUID inside the <ProjectGuid>...</ProjectGuid> Tag
