'Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly.' on mvn command
<p>when I run the command</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>mvn version</p>

<p>in ubuntu I get the following error.</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>Error: JAVA_HOME is not defined correctly.
    We cannot execute /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin/java</p>
</blockquote>

<p>My java version is </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>java version "1.8.0_91" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build
  1.8.0_91-b14) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.91-b14, mixed mode)</p>
</blockquote>

<p>And I run </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>sudo nano /etc/environment</p>
</blockquote>

<p>command and set java home and maven  as</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre"
  M2_HOME=/usr/local/apache-maven/apache-maven-3.2.5
  MAVEN_HOME=/usr/local/apache-maven/apache-maven-3.2.5
  M2=/usr/local/apache-maven/apache-maven-3.2.5/bin</p>

</blockquote>

<p>And run command </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>sudo nano ~/.bashrc</p>
</blockquote>

<p>and set these at the end </p>

<blockquote>
  <p>JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre

  export PATH export M2_HOME=/usr/share/maven3 export M2=$M2_HOME/bin
  export PATH=$M2:$PATH</p>
</blockquote>

<p>I have install java 8 and remove java 7 and then run the mvn command and I am getting this error. I am curious to know why it is showing java 7 rather then java 8 and Please also suggest me some solution.
Thanks in advance</p>
