I can make Sonar scanner work with OpenJDK 8 but not with OpenJDK 11.

The Maven command used is:

mvn clean org.jacoco:jacoco-maven-plugin:prepare-agent verify sonar:sonar -Dsonar.analysis.mode=preview -Dsonar.report.export.path=sonar-report.json -P ci

The build fails with:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.4.0.905:sonar (default-cli) on project framework-bio: Execution default-cli of goal org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.4.0.905:sonar failed: A required class was missing while executing org.sonarsource.scanner.maven:sonar-maven-plugin:3.4.0.905:sonar: javax/xml/bind/ValidationEventHandler

Is Sonar Scanner expected to work with JDK 11?

I finally found https://github.com/sonargraph/sonar-sonargraph-integration/issues/14

The issue is coming from SonarQube plugin named sonar-sonargraph-integration. I uninstalled the plugin from SonarQube server and the issue went away.
