maven ignoring jenv settings

Question

I had OSX with Java 1.6 installed, and I just installed jenv along with Java 1.7:

$ jenv local \'1.7\'
$ jenv versions
  s         


        

Answer 1

You need to install the jenv maven plugin, try the following command and reload your shell:

jenv enable-plugin maven

Answer 2

I had a similar problem. I got things running by prefixing all command with jenv exec:

jenv exec mvn -version

Answer 3

Now, there's a new option how to set JAVA_HOME via jenv export plugin:

jenv enable-plugin export
