I am using maven in a project here at work and I’ve come up

  • 0

I am using maven in a project here at work and I’ve come up to a rather strange (at least for me) problem. When I do an: mvn package everything seems ok but the output of mvn disappears as soon as maven completes. To test it more I just did a: mvn –help and I could not see the output. As soon as the command finishes the prompt is cleared. I am doing my work now using redirections: mvn package > out and then: type out in order to see the output. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanx!

Solved: To whoever finds this useful. At the end of mvn.bat there was the line

    cmd /C exit /B %ERROR_CODE%

which I had to comment out like this:

    @REM cmd /C exit /B %ERROR_CODE%

    Check if the MAVEN_TERMINATE_CMD is set to on. If it is unset it:

    set MAVEN_TERMINATE_CMD=

    Check that the mvn.bat script in maven’s bin directory doesn’t contain an exit command without the /b option. It should end with the following line:

    cmd /C exit /B %ERROR_CODE%

    If neither alternative solves your problem, set the MAVEN_BATCH_PAUSE variable to on:

    set MAVEN_BATCH_PAUSE=on

    before you run maven. This should cause mvn.bat to wait for a keystroke before exiting.
