Error during SonarScanner execution after executing SonarScanner end command

Question

I am getting error during SonarScanner execution, while executing the third command:

1. dotnet begin /k:"project-key"
2. dotnet build
3. dotnet end

Below is the screen shot of the exception:

I had same problem and solved it by reverting to openjdk 15.0.2 (16.0 is latest as of today and seems to create this issue, I install using https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/openjdk#versionhistory)
