Hi,

First, your version is past EOL. You should upgrade to either the latest version or the current LTS at your earliest convenience. Your upgrade path is:

8.7 → 8.9.2 → 9.1 (last step optional)

If your problem persists after you upgrade please come back to us with a fresh stacktrace.

Ann

Hi,

Thanks for the follow up. This is already tagged for the language specialists. Now we just need to wait for them to get here.

Thanks Ann…

We also encountered below, should I need to create new ticket for this? Please advise.Thanks.

Hi,

I don’t think so. It would be helpful if you could create reproducers tho: the minimal amount of code required to cause these errors in analysis.

Ann

Quentin · September 30, 2021, 3:06pm

Hello @lea.i.abrugena

Thanks for taking the time to report this issue. There is already a ticket for it: SONARJAVA-3872.

And the good news is that it is already fixed in version >= 7.2 of the analyzer, available in SonarQube 9.1.

Best,
Quentin

lea.i.abrugena · October 1, 2021, 2:15am

Thanks Quintin,

I see that SONARJAVA-3872 fixed the issue

ERROR: Unable to run check class org.sonar.java.se.SymbolicExecutionVisitor

Does this also covers the fix for original issue reported on this ticket? Please confirm.

ERROR: Unable to run check class org.sonar.java.checks.ChangeMethodContractCheck - S2638

Thanks again,
Lea

Quentin · October 1, 2021, 7:12am

Yes, it should cover the two cases.
