Thank you for this brief and to-the-point tutorial

Your welcome!

Code coverage is showing 0% at 13:52. How to fix this issue?

[@Engineerhoon]

Please check the other video about code coverage in the SonarQube playlist.

[@mayurborse9765]

why there is no wrapper.conf file in my downloaded sonrqube?

[@divyad8087]

Hi, without database(SQL) can we analyse project and show coverage in sonarqube dashboard?

[@Engineerhoon]

Yes. Embedded DB is a default option.

[@alphaman3765]

I tried to run sonarqube,its telling in the terminal that it started.But the problem is when I tries to open sonarqube in port 9000 , its not working

[@RAMANKUMARGCEBIT]

thank u for the video. i have a que: at 1:07, its mentioned that java should be installed. so, even if we want to run SonarQube to test/maintain codes written in Python or other languages, we can use it ?

[@Engineerhoon]

jdk needs to be installed as Sonar scanner requires Java

[@RAMANKUMARGCEBIT]

​@@Engineerhoon if at 12:05 we select python. can we use SonarQube to analyse codes of Python as well?

[@digitizeo]

@@RAMANKUMARGCEBIT Yes, you can!

Hello sir! Thanks for this amazing tutorial! A quick quesiton for you and for everyone that can help me with this asnwer - can this be used for Wordpress plugins as well? (they are written in PHP mostly and some JS libraries etc). I am curious to hear from you guys if you know any tutorial for this, or if it's even possible.. cheers

You need jdk 17 installed to run SonarQube. Use sonar.properties to update any requires properties.

When we are testing using sonarqube, In intelijidea through sonarlint plugin it shows the issues. While in the sonarqube dashboard the issues are not reported like it shows 0 bugs ,0 vulnerabilities and 0 debt ,0 security hotspots,0 code smells not in new code abd also in overall source code. How to solve this issue ?

[@shashanksid8678]

Git branch is not showing in sonarqube. I can see only master and develop branches in sonar. How can i see the branches in which i made changes ?

[@Engineerhoon]

I guess that is available only with paid subscription

[@tejav143]

How can we integrate to the branches in sonar cloud?

[@Engineerhoon]

You can refer this doc docs.sonarqube.org/latest/branches/overview/

[@elenafartukova1656]

It's exactly what I was looking for! but it's not the 1st time for your videos that the volume of the sound is not high enough ( I live close to the airport and it's hard to hear you properly when the plane is passing even if I'm using my headset). Other authors have a higher volume for their videos, so this issue could stop me from watching yours if I foresee a busy scheduled for the airport

[@Engineerhoon]

Sorry to know about that. I will work on this feedback.

hi bro. i have one doubt. how to take backup and recovery of all the projects?

Backup of projects from where? If you want to backup project's analysis report then getting a DB backup where reports are persisted can be enough.

Amazing tutorial, pls tell me how to backup current sonarqube setup or backup its current instance/database if incase my server got f* out so that I can restore it.

[@Engineerhoon]

Backing up your SonarQube setup, including its instance and database, is crucial to ensure you can restore your code analysis environment in case of server issues or data loss. Here are the steps to backup and restore SonarQube: Backup SonarQube Instance: Stop SonarQube Server: Before taking any backups, stop the SonarQube server to ensure data consistency. Backup SonarQube Home Directory: The SONARQUBE_HOME directory contains configuration files, plugins, and other settings specific to your SonarQube instance. Create a copy of this directory as your backup. The location of this directory can vary based on your installation method but is often found in /opt/sonarqube or C:\SonarQube. Database Backup: If you're using an external database (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, or Oracle), you should regularly back up your database separately. The method for doing this will depend on the specific database system you're using. Consult your database documentation for instructions on how to perform backups. Restore SonarQube Instance: To restore your SonarQube instance, follow these steps: Install SonarQube: Install a fresh instance of SonarQube on a new server or environment if your previous one is no longer accessible. Ensure that the SonarQube version matches the one you backed up. Stop SonarQube Server: Stop the newly installed SonarQube server. Restore SonarQube Home Directory: Replace the SONARQUBE_HOME directory in the new installation with the backup copy from your old server. This will bring back your previous configurations and plugins. Database Restore: If you backed up your database separately, restore it to the new database server. Follow the instructions provided by your specific database system for restoring a backup. Update Configuration: Check and update the sonar.properties file in your SONARQUBE_HOME/conf directory if necessary. Ensure that the database connection settings and any other configurations are correctly set up for the new environment. Start SonarQube Server: Start the SonarQube server in the new environment. Verify: Access the SonarQube web interface and verify that your projects, settings, and data are restored correctly.
