my plugin has 'org.codehaus.sonar.sslr-squid-bridge' as a maven dependency in pom.xml.
I get above error for the dependency version 2.6 and I do not get this error for the dependency version 2.5.3

Could you please help me on this?

[Scott B.]

Hi.

It seems that your .jar is invalid (missing or invalid MANIFEST.MF. Nothing to do with SonarQube itself.

By the way, to use the latest version of sslr-squid-bridge you can use this:

<dependency>

  <groupId>org.sonarsource.sslr-squid-bridge</groupId>

  <artifactId>sslr-squid-bridge</artifactId>

  <version>2.6.1</version>

  <exclusions>

      <exclusion>

          <groupId>org.codehaus.sonar</groupId>

          <artifactId>sonar-plugin-api</artifactId>

      </exclusion>

  </exclusions>

</dependency>

Hello Scott B,

I tried using below dependency in pom.xml replacing old one

However it is giving same error as earlier :(

Regards,

Swati

Hello,

Hello all,

as the Codehaus forge shut down and conflicts of version are not resolved by Maven. 
I have removed the library sslr-squid-bridge which brings a transitive dependency on a old sonar-plugin-api 4.5.1

Now there are no errors related to 'com.google.common.base' classes

However I am still facing below error

can you please also check attachment for pom.xml and build-logs.

Apparently the configuration <archive/manifest> of maven-jar-plugin conflicts with sonar-packaging-maven-plugin. Could you verify by disabling it ?

No, it does not work. I disabled the tag <addDefaultImplementationEntries>

                                     <configuration>

<archive>

<manifest>

<addDefaultImplementationEntries>false</addDefaultImplementationEntries>

</manifest>

<manifestEntries>

<Build-Date>${maven.build.timestamp}</Build-Date>

</manifestEntries>

</archive>

</configuration>

[ST]

I also tried by commenting whole configuration below.

[Simon Brandhof]

At that point I suggest that you build the sample plugin : https://github.com/SonarSource/sonar-custom-plugin-example

then compare the generated META-INF/MANIFEST file with yours. I hope it will help you to find the root cause of issue.

Thanks

Hello Simon,

I managed to resolve the issue.

The issue was due to value of the tag <pluginDescription> in the pom.xml

The description (tag value) was given on two lines.

as manifest file expects format like header field and value.

I make the description on single line and it works now. 

Thanks,

Swati

[Simon Brandhof]

Good to know Swati. Thanks for the feedback. Bug is referenced at https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/PACKMP-8.
