maven connecting to Sonar

Question

I have maven installed on my local machine and I\'m trying to test out Sonar installed on a remote box.

I found a few post online to configure settings.xml

Answer 1

Problem 1

As explained you need to specify the JDBC connection details, otherwise Sonar will attempt to talk to the embedded Derby instance, it assumes is running on localhost.

Problem 2

Are you using Derby? Well, the default configuration of Derby does not accept remote connections, but only connections from the same host.

The SONAR-1039 issue explains how to work-around this problem, but my advise would be to setup a full-blown database such as MySQL or Postgresql.
