Sonarqube upgrade from 8.9 to 9.6

Welcome :slight_smile:

you should update to either Sonarqube 9.9.1 LTS or the latest Sonarqube 10.0, as only the LTS and
the latest version are supported.

Of course the analyis of Java 8 applications is still supported, it’s just that the scan itself has to be run
with Java 11 or Java 17.

You should always use the latest version of Sonarqube Maven Plugin.
Just remove the plugin configuration as described here

and the latest version will be used.
