(Sorry to submit this when everyone's likely on holiday. Please don't feel obliged to deal with this until holidays are over.)

When I try to build the master project (Netbeans with TMC), I get an error saying mvn.bat cannot be found:
java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "mvn.bat" (in directory "C:\Users\joshu\Documents\computers\java mooc\tmc-netbeans-master\maven-wrapper"): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

I followed the instructions in the README.markdown carefully.

I've tried my best to fix it, but no dice. I tried:

  • Restarting NetBeans (NB) and building again
  • Installing Apache Maven, and setting Java and Maven paths in System Environment Variables
    • Set JAVA_HOME to C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.8.0_231
    • Set MAVEN_HOME & M2_HOME to C:\Program Files\apache-maven-3.6.3
    • Set a new Path to %M2_HOME%\bin

I'm using:

  • Windows 10 Home (64 bit)
  • NB 11.1
    • NB 8.02 for the NetBeans Platform
  • JDK 8
  • Apache Maven 3.6.3

Here's the full output I get when I try to build:
platform.download:
ant -f "C:\\Users\\joshu\\Documents\\computers\\java mooc\\tmc-netbeans-master" build
Building the mavenmodules cluster.
NOTE: you may need to restart NetBeans for the editor to notice.
