Plugin installation doesn't work in sonar 5.6.6 (latest LTS)

[telegrapher]

It looks like the plugin system changed in recent Sonarqube versions, and hence, this puppet module doesn't work anymore.

If I use the puppet module to install the ldap plugin, it creates the file:
/var/local/sonar/extensions/plugins/sonar-ldap-plugin-2.1.0.507.jar
The plugin is not recognized as installed.

When I install the ldap plugin from the web UI, the following files are created:

/var/local/sonar/data/web/deploy/plugins/ldap
/var/local/sonar/data/web/deploy/plugins/ldap/META-INF
/var/local/sonar/data/web/deploy/plugins/ldap/META-INF/lib
/var/local/sonar/data/web/deploy/plugins/ldap/META-INF/lib/commons-lang-2.6.jar
/var/local/sonar/data/web/deploy/plugins/ldap/sonar-ldap-plugin-2.1.0.507.jar

And in sonar the plugin is recognized as installed.

@telegrapher, can you document your setup? The filesystem shouldn't have changed, and we're successfully maintaining puppet with 5.6.6.

Can you check that the ldap plugin is actually getting placed in /usr/local/sonar/plugins/extensions (assuming your install root is usr/local) when you run your profile?
