so we have a Spring Boot maven based project, which we split into multi modules which all works perfectly fine in unit tests and Jenkins, but coverage is not showing up in Sonar at all.
This is the structure of our application:
ApplicationRoot
-SharedCommonModule
--main
---java
-----com...(SomeModule.java)
--test
----com....(SomeModuleTest.java)
-ApplicationModule
--main
---java
-----com...(Application.java)
--test
----com....(ApplicationTest.java)

We have researched and tried to hack it together from multiple examples, but nothing seems to work - closest we've got, is for Sonar to show some coverage, while some classes would show 0% coverage even though we know for sure we have UTs that used those classes (tested via IntelliJ).
So, without without the added properties and build xml sections above, we get partial coverage, only for ApplicaitonModule, I think all reported uncovered classes, belong to SharedCommonModule
EDIT: I want to clarify, the combined jacoco.exec file does show coverage for classes when loaded in IntelliJ Coverage tool, but Sonar does not show coverage for the very same classes in its report (which is generated only when I remove the build and properties xml elements in the parent pom).
Please help :)
You have Maven projects, so you should start using Sonar Scanner for Maven.
It is smart enough to generate all parameters for you.
If you remove:
<sonar.jacoco.reportPath>${project.basedir}/../target/jacoco.exec</sonar.jacoco.reportPath>
<jacoco.destFile>${sonar.jacoco.reportPath}</jacoco.destFile>
<destFile>${sonar.jacoco.reportPath}</destFile>
Jenkins SonarQube plugin configuration
add to parent pom file:
<name>ApplicationModule</name>
<properties>
<sonar.sources>src/main</sonar.sources>
<sonar.tests>src/test</sonar.tests>
<sonar.projectKey>com.Application</sonar.projectKey>
</properties>
add to SharedCommonModule pom file:
<name>SharedCommonModule</name>
add to ApplicationModule.pom file:
<name>ApplicationModule</name>
and finally execute:
mvn sonar:sonar -Dsonar.projectVersion="1.0.0.${BUILD_NUMBER}"
After that you should see missing coverage data.
Btw. it is not recomended to set sonar.projectKey for Maven projects. I set it to the same value, so your project will be accessible under the same link.
Easy question here. I want to add sonar to be executed on every Maven build. I tried:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.sonarsource.scanner.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1.1</version>
</plugin>
and
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.sonar</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>5.1</version>
</plugin>
and
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.7.1</version>
</plugin>
because a) I couldn't figure out what the plug-ins do and/or b) which one is the current one.
If I only add the above to <build> -> <plugins> it's not executed ever (so the plug-in doesn't have a default execution). So of course I added a <execution> instruction, and after that Sonar gets executed, but with the following error message:
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>prepare-package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>sonar</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.1.1:sonar (default) on project org.acme.project.build: Can not execute Findbugs: This project contains Java source files that are not compiled.
It does not seem to matter which phase I use (I tried validate and compile and test and prepare-package and package even though not all of them make sense). I am sure there is no source code generation anywhere in the project. And the static classes get compiled just fine.
I think the problem might be that the plug-in gets executed for every module, including the parent pom project. Which is weird, because sonar:sonar skips that project.
But the project structure is simple and I can't find anything unusual about it:
<groupId>group</groupId>
<artifactId>org.acme.project.build</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
<modules>
<module>org.acme.project</module>
</modules>
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>sonar</id>
<properties>
<sonar.host.url>http://sonar.acme.org/</sonar.host.url>
</properties>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.sonarsource.scanner.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>compile</phase>
<goals>
<goal>sonar</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
The project org.acme.project has nothing besides its own artifact ID and the parent. The command line is: mvn clean deploy -Dsonar.login=Wile.Coyote -Dsonar.password=*********** -Psonar
The log shows that sonar is always executed before the install phase, which of course is way to early.
So how do I use Sonar's Maven plug-in to analyze my code?
a) I couldn't figure out what the plug-ins do
The plugin is used to gather the details from code coverage reports and the repository code scanning for getting to analyze possible bugs, duplications etc. You can search for a sample sonar report to find what all and how to get these details with maven using two methods like settings.xml and maven plugin is detailed at SonarQube Scanner for Maven and
SonarQube - analyzing with Maven
b) which one is the current one.
The maven central suggests that the current plugin from org.codehaus.mojo used as
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.2</version>
</plugin>
has been moved to
<plugin>
<groupId>org.sonarsource.scanner.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.2</version>
</plugin>
So you should ideally be using the one from groupId - org.sonarsource.scanner.maven as also suggested by the SonarQube Docs
Also the artifact from org.codehaus.sonar version 5.1 seems to be outdated and not maintained.
Can anyone help me in getting solution for the below error.
Below are the version of the components to configure
SonarQube 5.1.2
Soanr-Runner 2.4
Java 1.7 [ I have to use 1.7 only since my code supports only 1.7]
mavn 3.3.9
sonar-cobertura-plugin-1.6.3
sonar-findbugs-plugin-3.3
cobertura 2.6
Execution command

In Console Window I am getting error
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:

onarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.2:sonar failed: Unable to load the

tion.ComponentLookupException: org/sonarsource/scanner/maven/SonarQubeMojo : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0
Since the 3.2, the SonarQube maven plugin requires Java 8.
You have to use the 3.0.2 version for Java 7.
You have to explicitely add this statement to your pom :
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0.2</version>
</plugin>
Because if you do not do so, by default this plugin uses the LATEST version of the plugin (3.2), hence your error.
See http://docs.sonarqube.org/display/HOME/Frequently+Asked+Questions#FrequentlyAskedQuestions-ShouldIlockversionofSonarQubeMavenplugininmypom.xml?
Regardless of what you compile your code with, the SonarQube analysis should be run with a specific Java version.
You simply need to use different JDK versions for the compilation and analysis.
For SonarQube 6.* compatibility], make sure the JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java8
For SonarQube 9.* compatibility], make sure the JAVA_HOME=/path/to/java11
In my case I had a parent pom with
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.sonar</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
I've added my own version also within pluginManagement in my child pom but this didn't work I had to add the plugin to the <build><plugins> nodes instead of <build><pluginManagement><plugins>. Only then new newer version had been used.
Maybe this helps someone.
Recently, install Sonorqube.5.12 image in docker and push the project into Sonorqube. Initially we were facing some maven console errors like major.minor version 52.0.
Later, has been fixed by below step's for me.
Add this plugs in maven.
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>sonar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.6</version>
</plugin>
<plugin>

Next, Add default DB setup in ~/.m2/settings.xml file

It worked for me after using Maven->update project , mvn clean install, mvn clean compile
I'm using Maven 3.0.3 on Mac 10.6.6. I have a JAR project and when I run the command "mvn clean install:install", I'm getting the error,

I don't know if this is the answer or not but it might lead you in the right direction...
(I believe these steps are for people working with Intellij IDE. The install:install is available in the Maven panel on the right by default. The below steps are alternative to it.)
The command install:install is actually a goal on the maven-install-plugin. This is different than the install maven lifecycle phase.
Maven lifecycle phases are steps in a build which certain plugins can bind themselves to. Many different goals from different plugins may execute when you invoke a single lifecycle phase.
What this boils down to is the command...
mvn clean install
is different from...
mvn clean install:install
The former will run all goals in every cycle leading up to and including the install (like compile, package, test, etc.). The latter will not even compile or package your code, it will just run that one goal. This kinda makes sense, looking at the exception; it talks about:
StarTeamCollisionUtil: The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact
Try the former and your error might just go away!
TL;DR To fix this issue, invoke packaging plugin before, e.g. for jar packaging use maven-jar-plugin , as following:
mvn jar:jar install:install
Or
mvn jar:jar deploy:deploy
If you actually needed to deploy.
Gotcha This approach won't work if you have multi-module project with different packagings (ear/war/jar/zip) – even worse, wrong artifacts will be installed/deployed! In such case use reactor options to only build the deployable module (e.g. the war).
Explanation
In some cases you actually want to run directly a install:install or deploy:deploy goal (that is, from the maven-deploy-plugin, the deploy goal, not the Maven deploy phase) and you would end up in the annoying The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact.
A classic example is a CI job (a Jenkins or Bamboo job, e.g.) where in different steps you want to execute/care about different aspects:
A first step would be a mvn clean install, performing tests and test coverage
A second step would be a Sonarqube analysis based on a quality profile, e.g. mvn sonar:sonar plus further options
Then, and only after successful tests execution and quality gate passed, you want to deploy to your Maven enterprise repository the final project artifacts, yet you don't want to re-run mvn deploy, because it would again execute previous phases (and compile, test, etc.) and you want your build to be effective but yet fast.
Yes, you could speed up this last step at least skipping tests (compilation and execution, via -Dmaven.test.skip=true) or play with a particular profile (to skip as many plugins as possible), but it is much easier and clear to simply run mvn deploy:deploy then.
But it would fail with the error above, because as also specified by the plugin FAQ:
During the packaging-phase all gathered and placed in context. With this mechanism Maven can ensure that the maven-install-plugin and maven-deploy-plugin are copying/uploading the same set of files. So when you only execute deploy:deploy, then there are no files put in the context and there is nothing to deploy.
Indeed, the deploy:deploy needs some runtime information placed in the build context by previous phases (or previous plugins/goals executions).
It has also reported as a potential bug: MDEPLOY-158: deploy:deploy does not work for only Deploying artifact to Maven Remote repo
But then rejected as not a problem.
The deployAtEnd configuration option of the maven-deploy-plugin won't help neither in certain scenarios because we have intermediate job steps to execute:
Whether every project should be deployed during its own deploy-phase or at the end of the multimodule build. If set to true and the build fails, none of the reactor projects is deployed. (experimental)
So, how to fix it?
Simply run the following in such a similar third/last step:
mvn jar:jar deploy:deploy
The maven-jar-plugin will not re-create any jar as part of your build, thanks to its forceCreation option set to false by default:
Require the jar plugin to build a new JAR even if none of the contents appear to have changed. By default, this plugin looks to see if the output jar exists and inputs have not changed. If these conditions are true, the plugin skips creation of the jar.
But it will nicely populate the build context for us and make deploy:deploy happy. No tests to skip, no profiles to add. Just what you need: speed.
Additional note: if you are using the build-helper-maven-plugin, buildnumber-maven-plugin or any other similar plugin to generate meta-data later on used by the maven-jar-plugin (e.g. entries for the Manifest file), you most probably have executions linked to the validate phase and you still want to have them during the jar:jar build step (and yet keep a fast execution). In this case the almost harmless overhead is to invoke the validate phase as following:
mvn validate jar:jar deploy:deploy
Yet another additional note: if you have not jar but, say, war packaging, use war:war before install/deploy instead.
Gotcha as pointed out above, check behavior in multi module projects.
This reply is on a very old question to help others facing this issue.
I face this failed error while I were working on my Java project using IntelliJ IDEA IDE.
Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:2.4:install (default-cli) on project getpassword: The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact
this failed happens, when I choose install:install under Plugins - install, as pointed with red arrow in below image.
Once I run the selected install under Lifecycle as illustrated above, the issue gone, and my maven install compile build successfully.
I have same issue.
Error message for me is not complete. But in my case, I've added generation jar with sources. By placing this code in pom.xml:
<build>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-source-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1.2</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>deploy</phase>
<goals>
<goal>jar</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
So in deploy phase I execute source:jar goal which produces jar with sources. And deploy ends with BUILD SUCCESS
This error shows up when using the maven-install-plugin version 3.0.0-M1 (or similar)
As already mentioned above and also here the following plug-in version works:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5.2</version>
</plugin>
you must clear the target file such as in jar and others
In C: drive your folder at .m2 see the location where it install and delete the .jar file,Snaphot file and delete target files then clean the application you found it will be run
While #A_Di-Matteo answer does work for non multimodule I have a solution for multimodules.
The solution is to override every plugin configuration so that it binds to the phase of none with the exception of the jar/war/ear plugin and of course the deploy plugin. Even if you do have a single module my rudimentary tests show this to be a little faster (for reasons I don't know) performance wise.
Thus the trick is to make a profile that does the above that is activated when you only want to deploy.
Below is an example from one of my projects which uses the shade plugin and thus I had to re-override the jar plugin not to overwrite:
<profile>
<id>deploy</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>buildStep</name>
<value>deploy</value>

Now if I run mvn deploy -Pdeploy it will only run the jar and deploy plugins.
How you can figure out which plugins you need to override is to run deploy and look at the log to see which plugins are running. Make sure to keep track of the id of the plugin configuration which is parens after the name of the plugin.
I had the same issue but I executed mvn install initially (not install:install as it was mentioned earlier).
The solution is to include:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5.2</version>
</plugin>
Into plugin management section.
This worked for me when I got the same error message...
mvn install deploy
I have seen this error occur when the plugins that are needed are not specifically mentioned in the pom. So
mvn clean install
will give the exception if this is not added:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-install-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.5.2</version>
</plugin>
Likewise,
mvn clean install deploy
will fail on the same exception if something like this is not added:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-deploy-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.8.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>default-deploy</id>
<phase>deploy</phase>
<goals>
<goal>deploy</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
It makes sense, but a clearer error message would be welcome

I hope this helps someone but I accidentally added a module to my project and it changed my pom file from
<packaging>jar</packaging>
to
<packaging>pom</packaging>
so I just changed it back to
<packaging>jar</packaging>
and it worked to create the jar again
I have encountered a similar issue:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-install-plugin:3.0.1:install (default-install) on project MyProject: The packaging for this project did not assign a file to the build artifact -> [Help 1]
In my case, the error was due to blank spaces in my project directory path e.g.:
~\Documents\Job\My Project\my-project
I have renamed the directory in order to have a project path without blank spaces and it worked fine.
I have a module which is supposed to produce two artifacts (war's). The only difference between the two WAR's is the web.xml being used.
I did this with the help of Maven Profiles...

Q1: How can I call this POM from super POM so that both the Profiles are activated?
Q2: Is it possible to install both the generated artifacts in Local repository?
Thanks!
When you want to activate several profiles at the same time, you simply have to run mvn ... -Pprofile1,profile2 command.
However, in your case, this is against one main Maven convention, which states that one project = one artifact. This means that you can't create 2 WAR at the same time. If you activate both profiles, one configuration of the maven-war-plugin will be overriden by the second profile, and then, you will finally get 1 WAR, with one web.xml.
If you want to get 2 WARs, the solution are to use WAR overlay (i.e. the second war is another project that depends on war #1), or run two separate Maven commands, one per profile.
