Davor Krtic created MNG-7188:
--------------------------------
Summary: Maven fails to start in Cygwin when installed with SDKMAN
Key: MNG-7188
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7188
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Command Line
Affects Versions: 3.8.1
Environment: Windows 10, Cygwin, SDKMAN
Reporter: Davor Krtic
Exception:
{noformat}
java.io.FileNotFoundException:
C:\cygwin64\home\davor.krtic\.sdkman\candidates\maven\current\bin\m2.conf
...{noformat}
{{current}} folder is a symlink which Windows doesn't recognize. (SDKMAN uses
symlinks to manage different versions)
Changing the following line in the {{mvn}} script from:
{code:java}
MAVEN_HOME=`cd "$MAVEN_HOME" && pwd`
{code}
to:
{code:java}
MAVEN_HOME=`cd "$MAVEN_HOME" && pwd -P`
{code}
fixes the problem as it avoids symlinks.
