Maven-错误：无法找到或加载主类org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher

Question

I know this question has been posted a lot, but I still can't resolve my problem.

So, I just downloaded a bin distribution from http://apache.mirrors.hoobly.com/maven/maven-3/3.3.9/binaries/apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.zip

after extracting the zip file, I moved it to /opt/apache-maven-3.3.9

Here's how my terminal look like when I run the commands:

xxx@xxx-VirtualBox:/opt/apache-maven-3.3.9/bin$ ls
m2.conf  mvn  mvnDebug

xxx@xxx-VirtualBox:/opt/apache-maven-3.3.9/bin$ ./mvn
Error: Could not find or load main class org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher

xxx@xxx-VirtualBox:/opt/apache-maven-3.3.9/bin$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_80"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_80-b15)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.80-b11, mixed mode)

xxx@xxx-VirtualBox:/opt/apache-maven-3.3.9/bin$ printenv JAVA_HOME 
/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle

Java is installed correctly, but I still can't run the mvn executable file

The result of ls -lR /opt/apache-maven-3.3.9 is as follows:

xxx@xxx-VirtualBox:/opt/apache-maven-3.3.9/bin$ ls -lR /opt/apache-maven-3.3.9/

Answer 1

Windows 7, JDK 8 -> In my case there was a problem with the .zip file, which I have taken from Maven site. I've found that there was nothing in this \\boot folder. There should be that plexus-classworld which shows that org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher.

for %%i in ("%MAVEN_HOME%"\\boot\\plexus-classworlds- ) do set CLASSWORLDS_JAR="%%i" set CLASSWORLDS_LAUNCHER=org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher*

I downloaded new Maven (.tar), set MAVEN_HOME and PATH. Now it works. So CHECK THAT FOLDER. IF EMPTY, DOWNLOAD NEW ONE.
