Hi, Tim, sorry to revive an old thread, but I am setting up a new notebook
(using Linux Mint, an Ubuntu-based Linux distro), and while I typically do most
of my development with Vagrant-DSapce [1] these days, I wanted to have a
working maven and ant stack on my host machine, just for emergencies, and, long
story short, I ran into the exact same error you mention below. It turned out
that the default Java installed by Linux Mint was in fact a JRE. To dispense
with the error messages you mention below, I had to specifically install a JDK,
and set up JAVA_HOME, and add $JAVA_HOME/bin to my path (same with Ant and
Maven, the usual drill with setting up Java on a new development machine). I
suspect you've made it past this hurdle, but I did want to reply just to be
sure there is an answer for your question, if anyone else come across this
error message. People of the future, please check to be sure you've installed a
JDK. :-)
