SonarQube: Fail to get bootstrap index from server: Status returned by url [http://hostname:9095/sonar/batch/index] is not valid: [403]

Question

I am trying to execute following maven command from jenkins job, mvn clean install sonar:sonar -Dsonar.host.url=http://hostname:9095/sonar -Dsonar.projectKey=mavensam

Answer 1

I think it's giving you the error because the program can't hit the endpoint you specified.

You shouldn't be specifying the port if the URL already has a DNS mapping. For example, if http://sonar.yourcompany.com is already mapped to 123.23.22.10:9000

So your -Dsonar.host.url flag should be: -Dsonar.host.url=http://sonar.yourcompany.com

You don't need the /sonar at the end of http://sonar.yourcompany.com

Also, sonar runs on port 9000, not 9095.
