SonarQube 5.1 analysis fail with StackOverflowError

I recently upgraded to the newest SonarQube 5.1, but now, my maven builds have begun failing and I'm unable to determine what file is causing the error. The maven project is a multi module project.

The maven build finishes with the following error:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.codehaus.mojo:sonar-maven-plugin:2.6:sonar (default-cli) on project flex-parentpom: null: MojoExecutionException: StackOverflowError -> [Help 1]

Any ideas for debugging the cause of the error? I've attempted with -debug flag.

Problem solved.

I ended up setting up a local instance and running the maven plugin using a debugger, this allowed me to set a breakpoint at the exception. I turned out that we had a test case (file) which had a field defined by hundreds of Strings. This file has not been edited for a long time, so I guess the overall stack size has changed from 4.x to 5.x. The test was ugly and my solution in this case was therefore to refactor it. I guess another solution would be to increase the java stack size, but I've not tried it.
