Sonarqube blacklist not possible

[735trv]

Hi @liske,
I've a Debian server on which Sonarqube (Community EditionVersion 9.4 build 54424) is installed. When running needrestart, it always reports that the sonarqube service needs a restart. Unfortunately adding it to the blacklist didn't work. Would be nice if you could check this. Thanks! 🙂

systemctl edit --full sonarqube

If you run needrestart -b -vvvv what do you end up seeing as the applicable program path? Your unit has a shell script wrapper, so what you might think to match may not be what you actually need to match. Why? Because blacklist_mappings actually reads /proc/PID/maps. If those wrapper scripts use exec to replace the existing process space when the daemon launches, the actual process path in /proc/PID/maps won't talk about the script, but potentially some other binary.

@koitsu Thanks for your explanation. Understand now how this works in the background 👍

And yes, it is a wrapper script, for a Java application (Source)
