Mvn command not recognized
I have installed Maven2 as described in the steps found at:
http://maven.apache.org/download.html
I'm running an XP machine. I created the user variable and added the bin
path to the path variable. However, when I try to run the mvn --version
command to verify it is installed correctly I get the following error:
'mvn' is not recognized as an internal or external command
However, if I use the command as follows I get the expected result:
C:\>"C:\Program Files\apache-maven-2.0.9\bin\mvn" --version
Result:
Maven version: 2.0.9
Java version: 1.5.0_15
OS name: "windows xp" version: "5.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows"
It is a pain to have to write out the entire path each time especially
knowing I should not have to do this. I have verified the paths and
variables are setup correctly and received this list when I ran the set
command:
M2_HOME=C:\Program Files\apache-maven-2.0.9
M2_REPO=C:\Documents and Settings\wcappoli\.m2\repository\bin
NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS=2
OS=Windows_NT
Path=C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\OutputManagement\;C:\Program
Files\CA\
SHARED~1\OUTPUT~1;C:\Program Files\CA\SHARED~1\CA_APPSW;C:\Program
Files\CA\Shar
edComponents\CA_APPSW\;C:\Program
Files\Perl\bin\;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS
;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;c:\Program Files\ATI
Technologies\ATI.ACE\Core-Static;
C:\Program Files\Utimaco\SafeGuard Easy\;C:\Program
Files\NetManage\Windows;%JAV
A_HOME%\bin; %GROOVY_HOME%/bin; %ANT_HOME%\bin;%M2_HOME%\bin
I also get this when I check for the M2_HOME path:
C:\>echo %M2_HOME%
C:\Program Files\apache-maven-2.0.9
Anybody have any ideas as to how to fix this?
Thanks

Thanks Wayne Fay
Your solution worked for me
I am using maven 3.0.3 in Windows XP SP3
I have also included the M2 variable value in PATH variable before changing
the path of Maven to a path that doesnt have any spaces.

I've followed this thread since I'm dealing with the same problem. I've
substituted Path value for the whole M2_HOME value and it's not working.
Any other suggestions?

Chris,
Your suggestion of writing the entire path into the path variable
worked.

Are you restarting cmd after you set the PATH variable? The spaces
should not matter, as I have many spaces in paths that are in my PATH
variable and do not have any issues.
A thought: have you tried replacing %M2_HOME% in PATH with the actual
value of M2_HOME? I think I remember running into an instance where
Windows didn't do the substitution in the PATH variable.
