Re: Why does maven 3 still use the M2_HOME variable?
I run m2 and m3 on the same machine at the same time (but from different windows)... no issues at all for me. http://javaadventure.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-magic-maven-and-ant-version.html just don't use M2_HOME at all, use MAVEN_HOME both versions pick it up quite successfully the M2_HOME was only legacy when M1 was around.

Re: Why does maven 3 still use the M2_HOME variable?
The maven installation instructions [1] explicitly mention the M2_HOME variable (and not MAVEN_HOME), is this obsolete? -Lukas [1] http://maven.apache.org/download.html#Installation On 07/19/2011 08:26 AM, Stephen Connolly wrote: I run m2 and m3 on the same machine at the same time (but from different windows)... no issues at all for me. http://javaadventure.blogspot.com/2011/03/my-magic-maven-and-ant-version.html just don't use M2_HOME at all, use MAVEN_HOME both versions pick it up quite successfully the M2_HOME was only legacy when M1 was around.

Hi Peter, Peter Wilkinson wrote: Doing this stops maven 2 and maven 3 being able to run on the same machine. It also makes no sense. Don't set it. The Maven start scripts will set it locally themselves. I can run any Maven version side-by-side just by some symbolic links without any environment setting: /usr/bin $ ls -og mvn* lrwxrwxrwx 1 7 Jan 25 08:42 mvn - mvn-3.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 32 Mar 23 2010 mvn-2.0 - /usr/share/maven-bin-2.0/bin/mvn lrwxrwxrwx 1 32 Sep 17 2009 mvn-2.2 - /usr/share/maven-bin-2.2/bin/mvn lrwxrwxrwx 1 32 Mar 11 08:28 mvn-3.0 - /usr/share/maven-bin-3.0/bin/mvn - Jörg - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org

Doing this stops maven 2 and maven 3 being able to run on the same machine. It also makes no sense. Cheers, Peter
