To be fair it is my fault not reading requirements but it is totally non-expected behavior.

Hi,

Welcome to the community!

I’m a little confused. Your title says something about a deletion, but I don’t see that reflected in your logs. Could you be more explict?

 
Thx,
Ann

  1. First ls: we have file sonar-application-8.6.0.39681.jar in directory.
  2. I am executing it (with wrong jre installed): java -jar sonar-application-8.6.0.39681.jar. Understandably got an error.
  3. File sonar-application-8.6.0.39681.jar is no longer present in directory after getting this error message with is represented in second ls call.

I am sorry. I believe I am close to limits in my capabilities in English language for this case

Hey there.

Your english is great. :slight_smile:

I can’t reproduce this – but I’m curious, why are you starting the application like this rather than using the startup scripts in the bin directory?

Of course because I downloaded it and got strait to actions before reading or even processing anything. I believe at that point I was just collecting distributive and smoke-run it to use later in analysis work with, honestly, shouldn’t be an excuse.
After re-downloading (since main lib file is missing) and updating jdk i used scripts from bin folder and it worked as expected.
It is just…really strange behavior I think was worth to report.

btw should be definitely jre/platform-dependent issue. Couldn’t reproduce it ether on ubuntu+openjdk 1.8.
Also was thinking it can be related to Cyrillic symbols in path but doesn’t seems like it make any difference.

Thanks for the report. I’m asking around for somebody who uses Windows as a daily driver to try and reproduce :slight_smile:
