windows - Maven: mvn command not found

Question

I set the following system veriables (OS = Vista):

M2_HOME = C:Program FilesMaven 
M2 = %M2_HOME%in 
path = %M2% 

If i run mvn -- version I get:

mvn: command not found

Anyone have any idea why this could be? Thanks.

Answer 1

If you are on windows, what i suppose you need to do set the PATH like this:

SET PATH=%M2%

furthermore i assume you need to set your path to something like C:...apache-maven-3.0.3 cause this is the default folder for the windows archive. On the other i assume you need to add the path of maven to your and not set it to only maven so you setting should look like this:

SET PATH=%PATH%;%M2%
