Hi,

I don’t think SonarQube 7.2 supported Java 11. Since that version is past EOL anyway, you should upgrade at your earliest convenience to 7.9.3, the current LTS, and then on to 8.4.1, the current version. Then you’ll be able to analyze using Java 11.

Hi @ganncamp, Thanks to your reply.

Let me paraphrase my setup.
I used
SonarQube 7.2.
sonar-scanner-cli-4.4.0.2170
sonar-java-plugin-5.6.0.15032.jar in E:\sonarqube-7.2\extensions\plugins
& jdk 1.8 has been used to compile the source code , because source code is developed in Java 8.

could you please highlight me , where java 11 comes in to the picture ?
Correct me - if my understanding is wrong.
Regards,
LnT

Hi LnT,

The error you list in your title is about “major version 55” being unsupported. The internet tells me that corresponds to Java 11. Somehow, whether or not you’re compiling with Java 8 or just to Java 8, you appear to be analyzing with Java 11.

Hi @ganncamp

Issue has been resolved by upgrading the sonarjava plugin
from sonar-java-plugin-5.6.0.15032.jar to sonar-java-plugin-5.8.0.15699.jar
