'mvn' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

May be question is asked before but i found very strange kind of error. When I run mvn --version command from bin its gives the version and the other information. However when I run outside bin it gives exception. Both the result mention below

C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.0.5-bin\apache-maven-3.0.5\bin>mvn --version
Apache Maven 3.0.5 (r01de14724cdef164cd33c7c8c2fe155faf9602da; 2013-02-19 19:21:

C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.0.5-bin\apache-maven-3.0.5>mvn --version

operable program or batch file.

Also i set JAVA_HOME in user variable and M2_HOME, M2 in system environment variable. The output for these variables and %path% is:

C:\Users\SAHILBHALLA>echo %JAVA_HOME%
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_25

C:\Users\SAHILBHALLA>echo %M2%
C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.0.5-bin\apache-maven-3.0.5\bin

C:\Users\SAHILBHALLA>echo %M2_HOME%
C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.0.5-bin\apache-maven-3.0.5

C:\Users\SAHILBHALLA>echo %path% 
C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\iCLS Client\;C:\Program Files\Intel\iCLS Client\;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPow erShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_25\bin;.;

Tell me where i am wrong. What should i do recover from it?

Solution

  • My problem solved, path didn't resolve %M2%. When i added location of maven-bin in the path instead of %M2% after that commands works.

    I would like to thanks to all those who try to solve the problem
