Hi all, Sonar is excited to announce the release of the SonarQube Server 2025 Release 3. This version makes generally available AI CodeFix (starting in Enterprise Edition) and SonarQube Advanced Security (available as a new purchasable license starting from the Enterprise Edition). It also adds ne…

Hello, We are using SQS 2025.1 and wanting to upgrade to 2025.3. We are using the plugin sonar-findbugs, which is used to detect some additional issues in java files (latest version 4.4.2 as of writing this): GitHub - spotbugs/sonar-findbugs: SpotBugs plugin for SonarQube When deploying 2025.3, w…

Hi @Mikaciu Indeed it’s due to SONAR-24623 . FindBugs does not seem compatible anymore with latest SonarQube versions, you can approach its maintainers.

This is already discussed in What is the maven version for SonarQube 2025.3? and https://github.com/spotbugs/sonar-findbugs/issues/1271 . You may test sonar-findbugs 4.5.0; for me sonar didn’t start anyway - see The findbugs plugin fails to load on SQ Developer Edition v2025.3 (108892) · Issue #1271…

I’ll try with the latest sonar-findbugs (once I unmess my first staging environment) 4.5.0, as suggested by @janosvitok :slight_smile:

Hey @Mikaciu I believe that specific problem is solved by 4.5 of the Findbugs plugin, but there’s another one being discussed over here: [image] Startup error with the findbugs plugin since 2025.3 Plugin Development Hello, After upgrading to SonarQube 2025.3 users are r…

What is the compatible sonar-plugin-api version for sonarqube-3.0-enterprise version? Or any version of sonar-plugin-api after 11.0.0.2664 is OK? We need the right sonar-plugin-api version for our customized java-plugin. Thanks

Hey @Colin , unfortunately 4.5. does not solve the issue ; I added a comment regarding this. I’ll keep our first staging environment in 2025.3 with the plugin disabled waiting for a fix. I’ll check if I can help debugging this :slight_smile:

For those who have the issue, 4.5.1 solves the issue :slight_smile: BTW @Colin shouldn’t have those two classes been added to the 2025.3 deprecation and removals ? HTH, BR

We’ll ping our docs folks and see if we missed something. Thanks @Mikaciu .

They are mentioned in the 2025.2 removals We did adjust the formatting so hopefully this makes it easier to find the deprecations and removals
