TFS Build vNext: SonarQube error - Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: ignoring option MaxPermSize=512m; support was removed in 8.0

After installing SonarQube and enabling the integration with our TFS Build server, the moment of truth was there. It was time to kick off our first build and let SonarQube analyze our code quality.

Unfortunately the SonarQube build task failed with the following error:

Whoops! It seems that SonarQube is providing an option flag ‘MaxPermSize’ which was removed in Java 8.0.

To fix it, I did the following:

  • Log in on the server where you have SonarQube installed
  • Go to the System properties and open the Environment Variables
  • Search for the SONAR_OPTS environment variable
  • Remove the MaxPermSize=512m; from the value
  • Save your change and reboot the server

That should do the trick…

Kubernetes–Limit your environmental impact

Reducing the carbon footprint and CO2 emission of our (cloud) workloads, is a responsibility of all of us. If you are running a Kubernetes cluster, have a look at Kube-Green . kube-green is a simple Kubernetes operator that automatically shuts down (some of) your pods when you don't need them. A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t...
