Problem with Maven and JDK

So I have set up the JAVA home and I even set JRE_HOME think that may help
but I am getting...
mvn clean test

[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Compilation failure
Unable to locate the Javac Compiler in:
  /usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.6.0/jre/../lib/tools.jar
Please ensure you are using JDK 1.4 or above and
not a JRE (the com.sun.tools.javac.Main class is required).
In most cases you can change the location of your Java
installation by setting the JAVA_HOME environment variable.

Of course tools.jar is not at this location but I don't even know why it
needs it, isn't that just for J2EE?

Thanks

Jackie

tools.jar contains, among other things, the compiler.
So yes, you badly need it.
