Hi,
I'm learning Maven 2.0.4 and encountered an error when invoking the
mvn script. The following piece of script seems to be the cause of my
error message:
========================================
if [ -z "$JAVACMD" ] ; then
if [ -n "$JAVA_HOME" ] ; then
if [ -x "$JAVA_HOME/jre/sh/java" ] ; then
# IBM's JDK on AIX uses strange locations for the executables
JAVACMD="$JAVA_HOME/jre/sh/java"
else
JAVACMD="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java"
fi
else
JAVACMD=java
fi
fi
if [ ! -x "$JAVACMD" ] ; then
echo "Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly."
echo " We cannot execute $JAVACMD"
exit 1
fi
========================================
I don't have my JAVA_HOME set, so my JAVACMD has the value of "java"
when the [ -x "$JAVACMD" ] check is done. Naturally it failed because
the file "java" doesn't exist in the current directory.
It would make more sense to do the [ -x "$JAVACMD" ] check in the [ -n
"JAVA_HOME" ] branch of the if statement in the previous block (when
$JAVACMD is built up).
Thanks,
