Takayoshi Fujiki created MNG-5686:
-------------------------------------

             Summary: mvn cannot execute /usr/libexec/java_home/bin/java on OS 
X.
                 Key: MNG-5686
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5686
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Command Line
    Affects Versions: 3.2.3
         Environment: Mac OS X 10.9.4
            Reporter: Takayoshi Fujiki
         Attachments: maven-bin-mvn.patch

>From 3.2.3, mvn cannot start and outputs the following error.
{code}
$ ./apache-maven-3.2.3/bin/mvn -version
Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly.
  We cannot execute /usr/libexec/java_home/bin/java
{code}

3.2.2 doesn't have this problem.
{code}
$ ./apache-maven-3.2.2/bin/mvn -version

When I modified {{bin/mvn}} like the following, this problem was gone.
{code}

{code}

Maybe MNG-5658 is related to this problem. {{/usr/libexec/java_home}} is a 
command([java_home(1)|https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/Manpages/man1/java_home.1.html]),
 and {{$(command)}} is a style of [Command 
Substitution|http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/commandsub.html] (Another(old) 
style is {{`command`}}).
So removing "$()" breaks the JAVA_HOME detection on OS X.
