Description

**No source code was seen and extracted to C:\***\DB-codeql**

Hi all,

I am using codeql cli and trying to create a database of my` msvc CPP` project inside a docker container and getting the error `No source code was seen and extracted to C:\***\DB-codeql.`
The project is being compiled normally without codeql but with the codeql cli I am getting this error.
I am using this command to create a database `codeql database create --ram 4096 -J-Xmx1G -vvvv --language=cpp -c path-to-file -s path-to-source`

the code was being compiled previously using mingw but with msvc I am getting this issue.
the `sourceLocationPrefix` is also set to my project path and there is no much information available in `build-tracer.log` file as shown below
