maven site plugin cannot find my javadoc

This error is driving me crazy in eclipse indigo

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-site-plugin:3.0:site (default-site) on project Cdss-camel: Error during page generation: Error rendering Maven report: Unable to find javadoc command: The environment variable JAVA_HOME is not correctly set. -> [Help 1]

My JAVA_HOME is set to /Library/Java/Home where it should be (symbolic link to the java home directory); I have a class path variable JAVA_HOME pointing to that location as well. Running the site plugin from zsh works,

The problem with the solution suggested above can be fixed by making sure that the Eclipse project refers to a JDK and not a JRE. Then the property will be able to find the javadoc executable.

I faced to this same problem. And tried everything to add JAVA_HOME to both .bash_profile and /etc/launchd.conf I hope those two methods could help you, but at least it did not help me.

I just add a property in pom as

(key: javadocExecutable, value: "${java.home}/../bin/javadoc")

Thanks to Marcin.

First check you JAVA_HOME which seemed to be wrong furthermore update the version of the maven-site-plugin to 3.1 instead of 3.0.
