Hello @Will,

Are you sure you don’t have an issue with your install? First these warnings about missing Findbugs rules, then a standard rule not found… there’s something fishy here.

What I suggest is to:

  • install SQ 7.9.3 (from here) into a fresh new fodler
  • report the needed conf from your former install (+ sonar.log.level=DEBUG in case it still does not start, you’ll know more)
  • copy your third party plugins
  • start SQ. Does it start? If no there is likely something wrong in the DB…
  • as it will start with bundled plugins from 7.9, there’ll not be up to date. So go to the marketplace and update everything
  • restart SQ

Let me know how it goes.

Hello Antoine,

Thanks for the reply. We instead moved to 8.2 which resolved this.
