I downloaded SonarQube, set it up and installed the C# and VB plugins. I downloaded the MSBuild.SonarQube.Runner. I followed the instructions for Analyzing with SonarQube for MSBuild when I enter the MSBuild.SonarQube.Runner.exe end command I receive the following error:
ERROR: Error during Sonar runner execution org.sonar.runner.impl.RunnerException: Unable to execute Sonar at org.sonar.runner.impl.BatchLauncher$1.delegateExecution(BatchLauncher .java:91) at org.sonar.runner.impl.BatchLauncher$1.run(BatchLauncher.java:75) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at org.sonar.runner.impl.BatchLauncher.doExecute(BatchLauncher.java:69) at org.sonar.runner.impl.BatchLauncher.execute(BatchLauncher.java:50) at org.sonar.runner.api.EmbeddedRunner.doExecute(EmbeddedRunner.java:102 ) at org.sonar.runner.api.Runner.execute(Runner.java:100) at org.sonar.runner.Main.executeTask(Main.java:70) at org.sonar.runner.Main.execute(Main.java:59) at org.sonar.runner.Main.main(Main.java:53) Caused by: com.A.vb.XYZ.A.A.A: Missing or bad plugin license. Please check logs.
Is licensing required for the C# plugin or the MSBuild.SonarQube.Runner?
No license is required for the C# plugin or for SonarQube Scanner for MSBuild. But a license is required for the VB plugin. So uninstall that plugin and you should be good to go.
Alternately, you can ask for a trial license.
