mvn command is not recognized as an internal or external command

Question

I am getting the mvn command not recognized as an internal or external command.

I have setup the M2_HOME, JAVA_HOME and added %M2_HOME%/bin to the path

Answer 1

Right click on My Computer >> Properties >> Advanced system settings >> System Properties window will get displayed Under Advanced >> Environment Variables

Click on New to set Environment Variables

Variable name: JAVA_HOME Variable value: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_121

Variable name: M2 Variable value: %M2_HOME%\bin

Variable name: M2_HOME Variable value: C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\apache-maven-3.5.0

Variable name: Path Variable value: %M2_HOME%\bin

Then click on Ok, ok, ok. Now restart you command prompt and check again with “mvn –version” to verify the mvn is running, you may restart your system also.

It's Working...... Enjoy :)
