Yes,
I am setting the JAVA_HOME variable with DOS prompt
and after I set it, I log of and then it is available in the list of env.
variables after I log back in.
But, when I try to run mvn install, it still gives me the same error.
Also, although, I set the M2_HOMe variable, I am not able to use mvn command
without its location! (I have to write the full path of the mvn.bat file and
then say install after a space)
I dont know what I am doing wrong.
Thanks for your replies.

Hi,
Did you check whether JAVA_HOME is available in dos prompt as well ?
Perhaps
you should try "set JAVA_HOME=C:\abc\Java\jdk1.5.0_14" prior to running
"mvn
install" ?

Hello,
I am trying to learn how to build XWiki from the source.
I checked out the source code in Eclipse 3.3 using Sunclipse and then I
created a Java Project out of the XWiki Core/src folder.
Now, I am trying to follow directions from the links -
http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/Building
I downloaded maven-2.1-SNAPSHOT and create dthe .m2/settings.xml.
I also created M2_HOME varibale and set the PATH variable with M2_HOME.
Set the JAVA_HOME to the jdk installed on my system.
But, when I try "mvn install" from the directory where I have the
XWiki/src checked out (Eclipse workspace), it says that JAVA_HOME is not
set
and gives me the following error:
ERROR: JAVA_HOME not found in your environment.
Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of your Java installation
I have JAVA_HOME set and it shows up in the list of env. variables in my
system like this:
JAVA_HOME = C:\abc\Java\jdk1.5.0_14
PATH = C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32;C:\Program
Files\Subversion\bin;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Program
Files\Quest
Software\PuTTY\;C:\Program
Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program
Files\Quest
Software\PuTTY\;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%M2_HOME%\bin
Could you please tell me what I am doing wrong and what I should change
to
get this right!
Also, am I on the irght path when I I say I am trying to buildthe src of
XWiki -core? and nothing else! As an eclipse project, it is all compiled
and
does not show errors implying that it has all the
files that it needs
for it
to complie.
Thanks
