Excuse my ignorance. How do I do that specifically. I'm quite technical but I don't know how to do that. :os

Set a JAVA_HOME variable to your java installation folder, add it (ie: %JAVA_HOME%\bin) to your PATH (I assume that Java is installed on your Windows) Benoît. -----Message d'origine----- De : jacqueline George [mailto:jacquelinegeo...@balance.eclipse.co.uk] Envoyé : vendredi 20 décembre 2013 23:03 À : 'Maven Users List' Objet : RE: Problems installing maven on windows 7 Hi It's me again.

Could you check your maven folder? I suspect that you have another > folder inside "Apache Maven" folder such maven-3.1.1 or something > else. In that case you need to change your home folder like this > C:\Users\user\Desktop\Apache Maven\mavenxxx\ As a follow-on to what Cemo said, I really don't recommend installing Maven (or anything else) inside a directory that has a space in the name. So if you have such a thing, rename the directory by changing spaces for underscores or just deleting the spaces. So "Apache Maven" => ApacheMaven or Apache_Maven Wayne --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
