[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (MNG-4414) "ERROR: M2_HOME is set to an invalid directory" Again ???

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4414?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=197787#action_197787 ]

Yes that was the problem.

But why is it needed?
I simply removed that ckeck, and everything is fine.
I think it is a very bad way of checking if M2_HOME points to the appropriate directory, because I have multiple versions of maven on the PATH, so I have to rename the files, and don't want any redundand mvn.bats.

It would be better to check the lib\maven-2.2.1-uber.jar maybe. That is what metters, isn't it.

Thanks.
