### Affected version 3.6.0 ### Bug description When I use the [google_checks.xml](https://github.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/blob/master/src/main/resources/google_checks.xml) template as config file with the maven-checkstyle-plugin, the mvn checkstyle:checkstyle command fails, while with [sun_checks.xml](https://github.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/blob/master/src/main/resources/sun_checks.xml) template everything works fine. pom.xml: ```XML <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId> <version>3.6.0</version> <configuration> <configLocation>google_checks.xml</configLocation> <outputDirectory>checkstyle</outputDirectory> </configuration> </plugin> ``` output: ```bash mvn checkstyle:checkstyle [INFO] Scanning for projects...
