Answer 1

OK I found the fix by myself , My sonar was working in a port 9005 so i have set url sonar.properties files.

Answer 2

The message "Fail to request server" explicitly states that this is something related to the Sonar server. Either it is not available (it might be down), or your configuration is not correct.
