Docker Remote Agent fails to start

[Pablo Comino Castro]

I have a fresh install of both Bamboo in Docker (7.2.2) (old version is needed) and the latest Bamboo Remote Agent also in Docker. The agent fails to start with error:

com.atlassian.bamboo.exception.StartupException: Mission critical plugins not found. Agent stopping...

I am running this command:

sudo docker run -e VERBOSE_LOGS=true -e BAMBOO_SERVER=http://myserverip:8085/agentServer/ -v ./bambooAgentVolumeLatest:/var/atlassian/application-data/bamboo-agent --name="bambooAgentLatest" --hostname="bambooAgentLatest" atlassian/bamboo-agent-base

Here is a link to my output log (this is a test server, nothing sensitive)

I have also tried with the latest version of Bamboo server and also an older version of the Agent to no avail. I am at a slight loss especially since both of these are fresh installs in Docker, so they should've have all the dependencies handled.

Turns out Java 11 removed the dependency javax.annotation. Switching to an older remote agent with Java 8 instead completely fixed the issue.
