Comment: where to find Maven configuration in newer NetBeans

...

  • First, install Maven:
    • For most Linux distributions, you should be able to just install the Maven client available in your distribution's repositories.
    • For all other operating systems, you can install the latest version from the Apache Maven site.
  • Configure Netbeans to use your external Maven:
    • Go to the "Tools" menu, and select "Options" (on OS/X, this is "NetBeans" -> "Preferences")
    • Select the "Miscellaneous" section (moved to "Java" section in newer NetBeans versions).
    • Select the "Maven" tab.
    • Modify the "Maven Home" field. It's possible that Netbeans will already see your external version of Maven (if it's in your PATH). However, if it says that it is using the "Bundled" Maven, then you'll want to fill out the "Maven Home" field with the location of your external installation of Maven.
    • In the middle of this page, you may also need to fill out the location of your "Local Repository". This should be the location of the ".m2" directory under your user's home directory.
      • On Linux and OS/X, it should be located at ~/.m2/
      • On Windows, it should be located at C:\Documents and Settings\username\.m2 (Windows XP) or C:\Users\username\.m2 (Windows 7)
    • All the other Maven settings should be fine as their defaults. Press "OK" to save your changes.
