+| **Download SonarScanner 3.3** - Compatible with SonarQube 6.7+ (LTS)  
+| By [SonarSource](https://www.sonarsource.com/) – GNU LGPL 3 – [Issue Tracker](https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SQSCANNER) – [Source](https://github.com/Sonarsource/sonar-scanner-cli)   
+|
+| [Linux 64-bit](https://binaries.sonarsource.com/Distribution/sonar-scanner-cli/sonar-scanner-cli-3.3.0.1492-linux.zip) |
+| [Windowx 64-bit](https://binaries.sonarsource.com/Distribution/sonar-scanner-cli/sonar-scanner-cli-3.3.0.1492-windows.zip) |
+| [Mac OS X 64-bit](https://binaries.sonarsource.com/Distribution/sonar-scanner-cli/sonar-scanner-cli-3.3.0.1492-macosx.zip) |
+| [Any*](https://binaries.sonarsource.com/Distribution/sonar-scanner-cli/sonar-scanner-cli-3.3.0.1492.zip)  
+| *Requires a pre-installed JVM - with the same requirements as the SonarQube server.
+
+The SonarScanner is the scanner to use when there is no specific scanner for your build system.
+
+## Installation
+* Expand the downloaded file into the directory of your choice. We'll refer to it as `$install_directory` in the next steps.
+* Update the global settings to point to your SonarQube server by editing `$install_directory/conf/sonar-scanner.properties`:
+```
+#----- Default SonarQube server
+#sonar.host.url=http://localhost:9000
+```
+* Add the `$install_directory/bin` directory to your path.
+* Verify your installation by opening a new shell and executing the command `sonar-scanner -h` (`sonar-scanner.bat -h` on Windows). You should get output like this:
+```
+usage: sonar-scanner [options]
+  
+Options:
+ -D,--define <arg>     Define property
+ -h,--help             Display help information
+ -v,--version          Display version information
+ -X,--debug            Produce execution debug output
+```
+
+If you need more debug information you can add one of the following to your command line: `-X`, `--verbose`, or `-Dsonar.verbose=true`.
+
+## Use
+Create a configuration file in the root directory of the project: `sonar-project.properties`
+```
+sonar-project.properties
+# must be unique in a given SonarQube instance
+sonar.projectKey=my:project
+
+# --- optional properties ---
+
+# defaults to project key
+#sonar.projectName=My project
+# defaults to 'not provided'
+#sonar.projectVersion=1.0
+ 
+# Path is relative to the sonar-project.properties file. Defaults to .
+#sonar.sources=.
+ 
+# Encoding of the source code. Default is default system encoding
+#sonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8
+```
+Run the following command from the project base directory to launch the analysis:  
+`sonar-scanner`
+
+## Sample Projects
+To help you get started, simple project samples are available for most languages on github. They can be [browsed](https://github.com/SonarSource/sonar-scanning-examples) or [downloaded](https://github.com/SonarSource/sonar-scanning-examples/archive/master.zip). You'll find them filed under sonarqube-scanner/src.
+
+
+## Alternatives to sonar-project.properties
+If a sonar-project.properties file cannot be created in the root directory of the project, there are several alternatives:
+
+* The properties can be specified directly through the command line. Ex:
+```
+sonar-scanner -Dsonar.projectKey=myproject -Dsonar.sources=src1
+```
+* The property project.settings can be used to specify the path to the project configuration file (this option is incompatible with the `sonar.projectBaseDir` property). Ex:
+```
+sonar-scanner -Dproject.settings=../myproject.properties
+```
+* The root folder of the project to analyze can be set through the `sonar.projectBaseDir` property since SonarScanner 2.4. This folder must contain a `sonar-project.properties` file if `sonar.projectKey` is not specified on the command line.
+Additional analysis parameters can be defined in this project configuration file or through command-line parameters. 
+
+## Alternate Analysis Directory
+If the files to be analyzed are not in the directory where the analysis starts from, use the `sonar.projectBaseDir` property to move analysis to a different directory. E.G. analysis begins from `jenkins/jobs/myjob/workspace` but the files to be analyzed are in `ftpdrop/cobol/project1`.
+```
+sonar-project.properties
+sonar.projectBaseDir=/home/ftpdrop/cobol/project1
+sonar.sources=src
+sonar.cobol.copy.directories=/copy
+For more, see the listing of analysis parameters.
+```
+
+
+## Troubleshooting
+**Java heap space error or java.lang.OutOfMemoryError**  
+Increase the memory via the `SONAR_SCANNER_OPTS` environment variable:
+```
+export SONAR_SCANNER_OPTS="-Xmx512m"
+```
+On Windows environments, avoid the double-quotes, since they get misinterpreted and combine the two parameters into a single one.
+```
+set SONAR_SCANNER_OPTS=-Xmx512m
+```
+
+**Unsupported major.minor version**  
+Upgrade the version of Java being used for analysis or use one of the native package (that embed its own Java runtime).
+
+**Property missing: `sonar.cs.analyzer.projectOutPaths'. No protobuf files will be loaded for this project.**  
+Scanner CLI is not able to analyze .NET projects. Please, use Scanner for MSBuild. If you are running Scanner for MSBuild, ensure that you are not hitting a known limitation.
