Install Apache Maven 3.3.9 on CentOS

install-apache-maven-3.3.9.sh

#!/bin/sh

wget http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-3/3.3.9/binaries/apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz
tar xzf apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz
mkdir /usr/local/maven
mv apache-maven-3.3.9/ /usr/local/maven/
alternatives --install /usr/bin/mvn mvn /usr/local/maven/apache-maven-3.3.9/bin/mvn 1
alternatives --config mvn

Awesome Script! Thanks

Perfect, Except that for the alternative command I needed to uninstall original maven package using yum remove maven

@nadalizadeh you must have had a previous installation of maven. Script worked fine for me as it's written. Although it wouldn't harm the gist having a yum remove -y maven in it.

As a side note I don't think alternatives --config mvn is necessary if this is the only mvn install, also the script above sets the priority to 1 in the install line. Reason I mention it is because I want this in a Dockerfile and I can't have alternatives --config mvn asking for user input.
You could instead say alternatives --auto mvn via this man page.

Awesome! Thanks!

The line 7 seems in correct. You have already moved apache-maven-3.3.9 to /usr/local/maven.
Probably should be
alternatives --install /usr/bin/mvn mvn /usr/local/maven/bin/mvn 1

Awesome !

EU mirror is not available anymore.
Now we should use something like https://www.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-3/3.3.9/binaries/apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz

Thanks, the link in the script is broken, but this is still active:
wget https://archive.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-3/3.3.9/binaries/apache-maven-3.3.9-bin.tar.gz
