Maven

In this tutorial, we are going to show you how to install Maven on a Ubuntu server.

First you need to go to apache.org to find out the url to the latest Maven bin.tar.gz

The current version is

http://apache.mirror.rafal.ca/maven/maven-3/3.5.2/binaries/apache-maven-3.5.2-bin.tar.gz

cd /usr/local
sudo wget http://apache.mirror.rafal.ca/maven/maven-3/3.5.2/binaries/apache-maven-3.5.2-bin.tar.gz
sudo tar xvf apache-maven-3.5.2-bin.tar.gz

Now, let’s update .bashrc file under your home directory to export environment variables.

export M2_HOME=/usr/local/apache-maven-3.5.2
export M2=$M2_HOME/bin
export PATH=$M2:$PATH

Save the file and run

source .bashrc

To verify if Maven is installed successfully.

mvn -version
