Hi @shauket and welcome to the community

i moved your post to a new thread as the other was quiet old and had a problem with a different plugin.

as you can see from the above log, your SonarQube instance failed to process a rule that that is coming from a 3rd party plugin (i guess it’s this plugin here).

SonarQube is offering a native swift analyzer from the developer edition upwards. for your problem with the 3rd party swift plugin you will need to reach out to the creator of this plugin and ask for help there. It might be that the plugin is not compatible with the current version of SonarQube that you are using.

hope that helps

Oh so mean either I have to use developer edition or need to contact to the developer who created that plugin right?
