I am trying to analyse java code through sonarqube. We have created a sonarqube server in our local environment and not using sonar cloud.
I tried using sonar maven plugin initially form this link Sonar-Maven Plugin
However I faced an "Insufficient privileges" error.

Then I tried to analyse using Sonar runner and I got same "Insufficient privileges" error again.

Insufficient privileges
Then I created a new Sonarqube server and re-ran the execution and it worked fine. I am trying to find out what was going wrong in the first server. The configuration for server and project was same.
Thanks in advance.
As mentioned in this answer, check the SonarQube user permission that you are using for your job:
global: Execute Analysisproject: BROWSE and SEE SOURCE CODEThose might be by default in your new SonarQube server.
As the OP VVP confirms in the comments:
Yes the problem was "Anyone" group was removed somehow and this prevented code from being pushed to SonarQube.
See more at Sonarqube / Security / Authorization / Group.
