FxCop analysis failing with MsBuild Sonar Runner

Question

I am trying to scan a .NET code using MsBuild Sonar-Runner plugin from jenkins. The system details are as:

• Jenkins : 1.651.2
• Sonarqube version : 5.6.1
• C# plugin on Sonarqube :5.3.2
• SonarQube Scanner for MSBuild : SonarQube Scanner for MSBuild 2.1
• FxCop installation :C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\\Team Tools\\Static Analysis Tools\\FxCop\\FxCopCmd.exe
• MSBuild installation - C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MSBuild\\14.0\\Bin\\MsBuild.exe

Using default SonarDB so no changes in sonar.properties file.

Error: FxCop must be installed when some of its rules are enabled in the SonarQube quality profile. FxCop is included as part of Visual Studio.

FxCop command is able to be executed from jenkins as well as command line on sonar server, but the MsBuild faisl with this error.

Kindly suggest.

I think the fault lies in your fxcop configurations .

Running Code Analysis (FxCop 12.0 / 14.0) on build agent without installing Visual Studio 2013 / 2015
