Installing Apache Maven

Maven – Installing Apache Maven

The installation of Apache Maven is a simple process of extracting the archive and adding the bin folder with the mvn command to the PATH.

Detailed steps are:

  • Have a JDK installation on your system. Either set the JAVA_HOME environment variable pointing to your JDK installation or have the java executable on your PATH.
  • Extract distribution archive in any directory
  1. unzip apache-maven-3.8.5-bin.zip

or

  1. tar xzvf apache-maven-3.8.5-bin.tar.gz

Alternatively use your preferred archive extraction tool.

  • Add the bin directory of the created directory apache-maven-3.8.5 to the PATH environment variable
  • Confirm with mvn -v in a new shell. The result should look similar to
  1. Apache Maven 3.8.5 (3599d3414f046de2324203b78ddcf9b5e4388aa0)
  2. Maven home: /opt/apache-maven-3.8.5
  3. Java version: 1.8.0_45, vendor: Oracle Corporation
  4. Java home: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home/jre
  5. Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8
  6. OS name: "mac os x", version: "10.8.5", arch: "x86_64", family: "mac"

Windows Tips

  • Check environment variable value e.g.
  1. echo %JAVA_HOME%
  2. C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_51
  • Adding to PATH: Add the unpacked distribution’s bin directory to your user PATH environment variable by opening up the system properties (WinKey + Pause), selecting the “Advanced” tab, and the “Environment Variables” button, then adding or selecting the PATH variable in the user variables with the value C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.8.5\bin. The same dialog can be used to set JAVA_HOME to the location of your JDK, e.g. C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_51
  • Open a new command prompt (Winkey + R then type cmd) and run mvn -v to verify the installation.

Unix-based Operating System (Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X) Tips

  • Check environment variable value
  1. echo $JAVA_HOME
  2. /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home
  • Adding to PATH
  1. export PATH=/opt/apache-maven-3.8.5/bin:$PATH
