sonar-maven-plugin:3.1.1 API incompatibility

[Oksana Tkanko]

Hi,

I get this error, when I execute sonar goal on my maven project:

mvn sonar:sonar

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.1.1:sonar (default-cli) on project : Execution default-cli of goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.1.1:sonar failed: Unable to load the mojo 'sonar' in the plugin 'org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.1.1' due to an API incompatibility: org.codehaus.plexus.component.repository.exception.ComponentLookupException: org/sonarsource/scanner/maven/SonarQubeMojo : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

My env details:

Apache Maven 3.0.5

Maven home: /usr/share/maven

Java version: 1.7.0_101, vendor: Oracle Corporation

Java home: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/jre

Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

Hi.

IIRC, since sonar-maven-plugin 3.1 you must run Maven with Java 8. Note that your project can still target Java 7, you only need Java 8 to execute the Maven build.

Sone information about the env:

Thank you
