Unable to install Maven: "JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory"
- by hello_world_infinity
I followed the Maven tutorial to the letter but I still can't get Maven installed.
When I run the following in command prompt:
E:\Documents and Settings\zach>mvn --version
I get:
'mvn' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I navigated to the maven install folder and ran mvn --version and got:
E:\java resources\apache-maven-2.2.0\bin>mvn --version
ERROR: JAVA_HOME is set to an invalid directory.
JAVA_HOME = "E:\Sun\SDK\jdk\bin"
Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of your Java installation
but when I run java -version I get:
java version "1.6.0_14"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_14-b08)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode)
So I do have Java installed. Anyone know what the problem is?
