Jenkins cannot run program sonar-runner

Installed:

Sonarqube 5.5

Sonar-runner 2.4 (http://dev.mamikon.net/installing-sonarqube-runner-on-ubuntu/)

When I try to run Jenkins with a simple project, this is the error I get:

[test] $ sonar-runner -e -Dsonar.host.url=http://server_url:9000/sonar/ -Dsonar.projectBaseDir=/var/lib/jenkins/workspace/test

SONAR ANALYSIS FAILED

FATAL: command execution failed. java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "sonar-runner" (in directory "/var/lib/jenkins/workspace/test"): error=2, No such file or directory

It seems that jenkins cannot find the sonar-runner program. But when I open the server with a terminal, and run sonar-runner, it analyzes the project.

Can someone help me with this?

Best guess: Jenkins has a sandboxed environment, you need to go into your jenkins config and add the sonar-runner location to Jenkin's path before it will know where to find it. You'll need to figure out where the SonarRunner executable is installed. – Tuffwer
@Tuffwer I somehow cannot set that variable. The sonar plugin from jenkins let met only configure the sonar server. (jenkins 2.5) – reinier stam
Did you follow all of the setup instructions on the Sonar Qube for Jenkins setup wiki? – Tuffwer
yes, i did follow they instructions. – reinier stam
Okay reading the error message, have you verified (by going to the directory in your terminal outside of Jenkins) that /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/test actually exists. If you have the sonarqube job as a seperate jenkins job it may have it's own workspace and thus not have that test directory when it should be there. – Tuffwer

after hours of frustration, it turned out i had to add environment variable in the /etc/profile file.

export SONAR_RUNNER_HOME=/opt/sonar-runner

export PATH=$PATH:$SONAR_RUNNER_HOME/bin
