Sonar-erlang verion 1.4 is not compatible with sonarqube developer version 9.6

SonarQube Server / Community Build

Hello,

I am trying to work with sonar-erlang from this Release 1.4 · evolution-gaming/sonar-erlang · GitHub. The version of sonarqube installed is developer 9.6. I’ve downloaded the jar and put it in $SONARQUBE_HOME/extensions/plugins. But the sonarqube failed to start as below error

Is there compatibility issue it is stated that the plugin has been tested to work with SonarQube Community Version 8.9.0 ?

Hi,

Welcome to the community!

It’s quite common in the releases after an LTS for us to update the API by dropping deprecated stuff. So it’s not surprising that a plugin that worked with 8.9 might fail with later versions. You’ll need to talk to the plugin maintainers though.

 
HTH,
