JAVA version issue when using SonarCloud

SonarQube Cloud
1

Hi Team,

I have recently integrated my projects (private) to SonarCloud and I am facing issues with running analysis on VB .NET webforms application. We are using Azure DevOps and build agent was setup on a On-premise server to build the application. Pre Analysis and Build are successful but getting JAVA version error when running the analysis. We have installed JDK 11 on the on-premise server where the build agent is running but still getting JAVA version error.

Do we need to install Sonar Scanner on the server?
As we are using SonarCloud, not expecting a Sonar scanner required to be installed on any of our servers. Please advise. Let me know if you need any further information.

Hi @vtangudu and welcome to the community.

If you’re are self-hosting your build agent, make sure you have the “java” capability setup in the configuration of that agent :

Hi @vtangudu

So you should upgrade your JDK version i would say.

It is 11 already. Do you recommend to upgrade to later version?

If it’s 11 already, you should update your JAVA_HOME env variable to pick the path to your java 11 installation.
