Maven compilation error when run through command l

Question

mvn clean test running from command line says , No Compiler is provided in this environment , perhaps you are running on JRE rather than a JDK.

Selected Installed JRE's as latest JDK in preferences, still am getting the above error. When running single feature file , the old code is being executed (i.e. though i comment out few steps from the scenario , they are being executed)

Same code when building with Jenkins is working fine.

Answer 1

Assuming windows and your actual directories may vary, make sure :

1) Your JAVA_HOME environment variable is set to .../jdk1.8/ directory

2) Your M2_HOME is set to your ../apache-maven-3.... directory

3) %JAVA_HOME%/bin & %M2_HOME%/bin are in your path

4) Check this with mvn -version, you should see something like:
