I am facing strange issue with sonarqube 5.0.1 , one one of the machine it is not starting. Here is the error log - sonar.log - 

--> Wrapper Started as Daemon
Launching a JVM...
Unable to start JVM: No such file or directory (2)
JVM exited while loading the application.
JVM Restarts disabled.  Shutting down.
<-- Wrapper Stopped

Machine is x86_64 GNU/Linux - Centos 5.1.

this box has java installed - 

$java -version
java version "1.6.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_45-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.45-b01, mixed mode)

The same sonarqube package works on another machine.

Any idea what could be the issue here?

Thanks.

Issue was in the wrapper.conf where the java wrapper command was not getting resolved. It worked if I give the absolute path - ‘wrapper.java.command=/path/to/my/jdk/bin/java’

This could be an issue with an environment on a host.. not sure.

Few things that helped me in troubleshooting this -

  • log level changed to DEBUG in wrapper.conf
  • comments given in the wrapper.conf!

Thanks all for chiming in! Appreciate your inputs.
