No ProjectInfo.xml files were found - visual-studio

i am using visual studio 2015 and tfs for build the project,
I started the build but got stuck with the error described below,
2016-03-17T09:38:15.2135195Z ##[error]No ProjectInfo.xml files were found. Possible causes:
2016-03-17T09:38:15.2135195Z ##[error]1. The project has not been built - the end step was called right after the begin step, without a build step in between

Can any one help me in this?

Assuming you are using TFS2015 vNext build, and you are trying to add build tasks below to execute a SonarQube analysis:
· SonarQube for MSBuild – Begin Analysis
· SonarQube for MSBuild – End Analysis
From your error log, you need to make sure the End Analysis task should be used to create a step that is executed after the “Visual Studio Build” task step. Review blog Build Tasks for SonarQube Analysis get more information of how to use SonarQube analysis tasks.

How to include folders projects for sonar analysis which are not part of solution using sonar scanner for .net

How do I configure the sonar to include folders or projects which are not part of the current .net solution. I have the following structure my current project:
MyProject - Root Folder
ProjectA - Normal .net project
ProjectB
MyProject.Services
MyProject.Services - This is a asp.net core project
MyProject.Services.sln
MyProject.Services.Model
MyProject.Services.Repository
MyProject.sln
folder_structure
MyProject.Services is a separate solution having .net core project. During the sonar analysis - it is only analyzing the files associated with MyProject.sln. The requirement is to include files from MyProject.Services as well to have a single report for both solutions.
I tried to include it as a parameter (sonar.sources) but got below error:
File "..." can't be indexed twice. Please check that inclusion/exclusion patterns produce disjoint sets for main and test files
We are using a powershell script for the sonar begin/end step which is getting executed through bamboo build job.
Sonar Scanner:
C:\sonar-scanner-msbuild-4.6.0.1930-net46\SonarScanner.MSBuild.exe
Sonarqube version: 8.9
The Sonar C# and Sonar VB.NET analyzers are Roslyn analyzers, so you need to build a project/solution to get the analysis results. So, if you want issues for MyProject.Services you will have to build it.
You can include the results for multiple MSBuild projects/solutions in the same Sonar project - just build the required projects between the Scanner begin and end steps e.g.
run the scanner begin step
build MyProject.Services.sln
build MyProject.sln
run the scanner end step

SonarQube Code Coverage from VSTS

I'm using VSTS hosted agent VS2017 to run the build, tests, and SonarQube analysis. I'm using the SonarQube extension from the marketplace (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SonarSource.sonarqube). Task version in use is 4 which uses SonarQube Scanner for MSBuild 4.0.2.
The analysis works well, but it doesn't translate the code coverage results to the SonarQube. I can see the Code Coverage analysis in VSTS (build details), but not in SonarQube.
In my understanding, the problem is that VSTS generates a binary file with an extension .codecoverage. SonarQube doesn't know how to handle this file. I'm having trouble converting this to XML format as it seems I have no means to do it.
Has someone used VSTS successfully with SonarQube and got the Code Coverage results to SonarQube as well? How have you set it up?
EDIT 1
SonarQube version that I'm using is: Version 6.7 (build 33306), Community Edition
EDIT 2
The end of analysis actually generates the xml-file, like was stated in the comments below. This is from the logs:

The VSTS extension should automatically import the coverage results, but there is currently a regression that will be fixed (hopefully) soon: SONARMSBRU-339
Meanwhile, there is a workaround explained in the VSTS extension documentation in "Analysing a .NET solution": in the Additional Properties text area, add the following property:
sonar.cs.vscoveragexml.reportsPaths=**/*.coveragexml
I was unable to see the 'coveragexml' file even though I set 'sonar.verbose=true', 'system.debug=true'. Although, I found another way that works just fine, i.e. converting '.coverage' files into '.coveragexml' with PowerShell script:
Get-ChildItem -Path $(Agent.TempDirectory) -Include "*.coverage" -File -Recurse | % {
$outfile = "$([System.IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($_.FullName)).coveragexml"
$output = [System.IO.Path]::Combine([System.IO.Path]::GetDirectoryName($_.FullName), $outfile)
"Analyse '$($_.Name)' with output '$outfile'..."
.$env:USERPROFILE\.nuget\packages\microsoft.codecoverage\15.8.0\build\netstandard1.0\CodeCoverage\CodeCoverage.exe analyze /output:$output $_.FullName
}
To make it work, make sure you have 'Inline PowerShell' task installed for the Marketplace and place it before 'Run Code Analysis' step in your build pipeline.
For those who use a self-hosted agent, you can also install Visual Studio Test Agent 2019.
It contains a CodeCoverage.exe file that the SonarQubeAnalyze#4 Azure DevOps task will find. SonarQube will be able to convert .coverage file into .coveragexml, according to this SonarQube documentation webpage.
Visual Studio Test Agent seems to be free. No need to pay for Visual Studio Enterprise.

Visual Studio online build failing with 0 warnings and 0 errors

I am just setting up a basic build with a very bare bones WebApi App, and I am getting a failed build, but without any errors or warnings... how can i figure out what is going wrong?
Project "d:\a\1\s\My.Project.Api.sln" (1) is building "d:\a\1\s\My.Project.Api\My.Project.Api.csproj" (2) on node 1 (default targets).

Even any way I can get a useful log or error message would be great!
Edit:
I added /v:diag for the build arguments for verbose logging, but it really isn't seeming to help.
Before Visual Studio build task, you should use nuget restore to download packages your project is referring.
So please add a Nuget task before Visual Studio build task. Detail setting for NuGet task as below:
Command: restore
Path to solution, packages.config, or project.json: **/*.sln or select relative path for My.Project.Api.sln
Feeds to use: Feeds in my NuGet.config
In your build definition, there is a variable called system.debug which is set to false. Change this to true at the template or at the time of triggering and you will get the debug lines written by the build tasks. Inspect the debug lines and you might find the issue.

SonarQube Scanner for MSBuild on macOS using mono

I'm trying to use SonarQube Scanner for MSBuild on a Xamarin project on macOS using mono. As MSBuild 15.0 is now shipped with Xamarin, I figured this could actually work.
I can successfully run the scanner's "begin" using mono like so:
mono sonar-scanner-msbuild-2/SonarQube.Scanner.MSBuild.exe begin /k:"KEY"
The command creates the following files:
.sonarqube/conf/SonarQubeAnalysisConfig.xml
.sonarqube/conf/SonarQubeRoslyn-cs.ruleset
.sonarqube/conf/cs/SonarLint.xml
Before running MSBuild, I've added the following import to the csproj files of my solution:
<Import Project="/Users/someuser/.local/share/Microsoft/MSBuild/14.0/Microsoft.Common.targets/ImportBefore/SonarQube.Integration.ImportBefore.targets" />
I'm running MSBuild using:
msbuild /t:Rebuild
Now the build starts correctly but eventually terminates with two errors:
"/Users/someuser/Project/Project.sln" (Rebuild target) (1) ->
"/Users/someuser/Project/Project.UI.iOS/Project.UI.iOS.csproj" (Rebuild target) (2) ->
"/Users/someuser/Project/Project.Core/Project.Core.csproj" (default target) (3:3) ->
(CoreCompile target) ->
CSC : error CS2001: Source file `/additionalfile:/Users/someuser/Project/.sonarqube/conf/cs/SonarLint.xml' could not be found [/Users/someuser/Project/Project.Core/Project.Core.csproj]
CSC : error CS2001: Source file `/additionalfile:/Users/someuser/Project/.sonarqube/conf/Project.Core_AnyCPU_Debug_1267/ProjectOutFolderPath.txt' could not be found [/Users/someuser/Project/Project.Core/Project.Core.csproj]
Both files do exist in the filesystem, the first file was created in the scanner's begin invocation and the second file was created during the MSBuild execution.
Why would MSBuild not be able to find / access these two files? Is there anything that can be done about it?
After checking with the folks taking care of MSBuild, the solution has been provided in this Github issue thread:
To quote radical's comment from the Github issue:
You could try building with csc by passing /p:CscToolExe=csc.exe /p:CscToolPath=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/4.8.0/lib/mono/msbuild/15.0/bin/Roslyn/ to msbuild
Unfortunately, even though MSBuild works with the above adjustments, SonarQube fails afterwards. I will follow up with the SonarQube people to see whether this can be worked around.

Configuring TFS 2013 has build issues with SonarQube

I have configured SonarQube to work with my TFS 2013. I followed the steps as mentioned in the setup doc. When i try to give a build from TFS online or Visual Studio, I am able to successfully complete the steps before Finish the analysis and upload the results to SonarQube.
I get the error No ProjectInfo.xml files were found. Check that the analysis targets are referenced by the MSBuild projects being built.
I am unable to figure out what might me causing the issue. I checked one of the links : No ProjectInfo.xml files were found error from command prompt using MSBuild SonarQube Runner v1.0 which speaks about the command prompt. Can someone point out where the issue is?
