Installation issue

Hello

i try to install MAVEN on MAC OS X EL CAPITAN and have downloaded and extracted the most recent maven- files.
I have set up the $JAVA_HOME correctly to 
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_74.jdk/Contents/Home



But if i try to double check the install i get by

mvn --version



the result



-bash: mvn: command not found


Does somebody has a hint to me?


Thx
Patric

Hi Patric,

I suggest installing Maven on OS X using Homebrew (http://brew.sh/).
Installation is as simple as "brew install maven" and then the "mvn"
command exists in /usr/local/bin.

Regards,
Curtis

Is mvn.sh in your path? Alternatively, if you go to the mvn/bin folder can
you run it via ./mvn.sh -version?

Hello,

Did you set Maven home in your  environments variables?
