Hi team,

Our Jenkins Sonarqube Scanner is failing after upgrading the Sonarqube to the latest version (Actually we have hosted a new Sonarqibe instance with the version of 9.0.1).

Appreciate it if someone can help me with the above issue.

Hi,

with Sonarqube 9.x the analysis must run with Java11 (class file version 55.0),
but you’re still using 1.8.0_292
see Moving Analysis to Java 11 | SonarQube Docs
