Install SonarJava Plugin into my self deployed SonarQube instance in kubernetes cluster using helm. SonarJava Plugin does not have a jar file because of that I cannot add it into my helm chart to install the plugin. What is the best way to install SonarJava Plugin? I am running Developer edition v10.8.1

You don’t need to install it. It’s already bundled in SonarQube.

Yes, I was able to find the jar file to download it from [here](https://binaries.sonarsource.com/?prefix=Distribution/sonar-java-plugin/). After inserting that as a plugin in my helm chart I got an error `Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is Found a plugin 'Java Code Quality and Security' in the directory 'extensions/plugins' with the same key [java] as a built-in feature 'Java Code Quality and Security'. Please remove 'extensions/plugins/sonar-java-plugin-8.16.0.39629.jar'.` So yes it is already bundled in the new versions of SonarQube.
