Sonar-Runner doesn't index any files

Question

I'm trying to run a sonar analysis on my playframework jave code. There are no files indexed:

I'm using jacoco for code coverage. My sonar settings look like this:

# Required metadata
sonar.projectKey=my:project
sonar.projectName=My project
sonar.projectVersion=1.0

# Language
sonar.language=java

# Path to the parent source code directory.
# Path is relative to the sonar-project.properties file. Replace "\" by "/" on Windows.
# Since SonarQube 4.2, this property is optional. If not set, SonarQube starts looking for source code
# from the directory containing the sonar-project.properties file.
sonar.sources=/home/mycomp/myReporting/app/
tests=/home/mycomp/myReporting/test/
binaries=/home/mycomp/myReporting/target/scala-2.10/classes

# Encoding of the source code
sonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8

# Additional parameters
sonar.dynamicAnalysis=reuseReports
sonar.java.coveragePlugin=jacoco
sonar.jacoco.reportPath=/home/mycomp/myReporting/target/coverage/jacoco.exec

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Solution 1

You must launch the sonar-runner command from a directory which is a parent of the source directory. This is not the case here and that's why nothing is indexed.

Solution 2

Specify sonar.projectBaseDir property as recommended in https://stackoverflow.com/a/23708680/1235394
