Re: [xwiki-devs] Problems with setting up Maven - xwiki-devs@xwiki.org

You variables don't seem to be set.
Best would be to set them in my computer -> properties -> advanced ->
environment variables

After setting and closing the window, open a new command prompt.

I think proper syntax to set env variables in windows is

SET *VARIABLE*=*value*

and not

SET *VARIABLE* = *value*

Thanks

 Hello,
 I have been trying to build the XWiki sources but with no luck.
 I am getting stuck at the first step itself- setting up Maven.

 Following are the commands I use to set the envt. variables as indicated
 in
 this link - http://maven.apache.org/download.html#Installation and the
 errors I get.
 Can anybody tell from this, whats going wrong here?

 C:\>set M2_HOME = C:\Kam\Software\apache-
 maven-2.1-SNAPSHOT\apache-maven-2.1-SNA
 PSHOT

 C:\>set Path = %Path%;%M2_HOME%\bin

 C:\>echo %M2_HOME%
 %M2_HOME%

 C:\>set > env.txt

 C:\>set PATH = %PATH%;%M2_HOME%\bin

 C:\>set > env.txt

 C:\>set JAVA_HOME = "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0"

 C:\>set PATH = %PATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\bin

 C:\>set > env.txt

 C:\>mvn --version
