echo $java _ home

is wrong.

  • blanks aren't optional

  • we are case-sensitive

    echo $JAVA_HOME

is the right way.

You need to have the definition of JAVA_HOME before the defintion of PATH. The expansion needs to take place at definition time, else it looks for the folder named "$JAVA_HOME" which you probably do not have.
