Hi Bitbucket Community,

I'm trying to integrate Fortify SAST scanning into my Bitbucket Pipelines using the official pipe fortifysoftware/fortify-scan:5.5.0-jdk-17. The pipeline succeeds in building the project and packaging the scan, but fails when trying to start the ScanCentral scan.

My Environment

  • Runner: Self-hosted Linux runner with Docker enabled

  • Fortify SSC Server: Windows, accessible at https://10.0.60.41:8443/ssc

  • Scan Central Controller: Windows, accessible at http://10.0.60.54:8080/scancentral-ctrl

  • Bitbucket Pipeline Image: fortifysoftware/fortify-scan:5.5.0-jdk-17

  • Bitbucket pipeline variables include:

    • SSC_URL

    • SSC_CI_TOKEN

    • SSC_VERSION_ID

    • SCANCENTRAL_AUTH_TOKEN

    • SCANCENTRAL_CONTROLLER_URL
      The issue 
      INFO: Starting ScanCentral SAST scan
      launcher.log will be stored in "/root/.fortify/scancentral-24.2.0/log" directory.
      Getting controller URL from SSC...
      Update failed.
      Standalone ScanCentral client cannot be started without a successful update check.
