I want to change to change the name of a sonarqube project.
This cannot be done without performing another analysis.
You can just do it in SQL https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30511849/how-to-rename-a-project-in-sonarqube-5-1
but you have to be able to login to the database.
Postgresql is very secure.
A quick fix is to edit
/var/lib//pgsql/pg_hba.conf
change local connections from ident to trust:
# TYPE DATABASE USER CIDR-ADDRESS METHOD
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local all all trust
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 trust
Now you can edit:
psql -U sonarqube -W sonar
and finally:
UPDATE projects
SET name = 'NEW_PROJECT_NAME',
long_name = 'NEW_PROJECT_NAME'
WHERE kee = 'PROJECT_KEY'
