I am attempting to perform a dry run analysis of an existing project with Sonar Runner but it keeps failing with a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError. I've tried setting sonar.dryRun.excludePlugins=emailnotifications but this does not fix the issue.
My Sonar version is 3.7.4 with Sonar Runner 2.3
Here is my sonar-project.properties:
sonar.projectKey=com.example.company:testproject
sonar.projectName=Test Project
sonar.projectVersion=1.0
sonar.projectDescription=
sonar.language=grvy
sonar.sources=src
sonar.projectBaseDir=.
sonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8
sonar.dryRun=true
Here is the stack trace:

This plugin is a core plugin located in \lib\core-plugins, not a plugin that you can manage through the Update Center, as those located in \extensions\plugins. So I don't think you can exclude it from the sonar-project.properties.
Normally, you should have this problem on all projects (under this SonarQube installation). Is that right ?
Did it work before on this project or did you do something meanwhile, like installing a new version ?
I would not be surprised if you had an incorrect version of that jar file. Maybe reinstalling it would work.
Regards.
