[FIXED] Maven Trying to compile in Linux environment using command line : No compiler is provided in this environment

Issue

I am trying to generate a build using maven, So started with mvn clean package command in linux server and Getting error as follows:

No compiler is provided in this environment. Perhaps you are running on a JRE rather than
a JDK?

I searched and found some solutions so changed my JAVA_HOME path etc. And following is my settings

• My JAVA_HOME => /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.131.x86_64/jre
• MVN VERSION SHOWS: Apache Maven 3.3.9 (bb52d8502b132ec0a5a3f4c09453c07478323dc5; 2015-11-10T16:41:47+00:00)
• Maven home: /home/ec2-user/.sdkman/candidates/maven/current
• Java version: 1.7.0_131, vendor: Oracle Corporation
• Java home: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.131.x86_64/jre
• OS name: "linux", version: "4.4.51-40.58.amzn1.x86_64", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"**

MY POM.XML File as follows:

Solution

My JAVA_HOME => /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.131.x86_64/jre

By this I assume you mean setting an environmental variable. Mine is set to the directory right above yours. I'd try that.

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.131.x86_64

Mine is set like the following which may not work for you but is here as an example:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64

When I ls that directory I get the following. You should get something similar.

$ ls /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64
