AWS sam cli: maven failed to return a version string with helloworld tutorial

I recently started to get an error with maven when running the command sam build.

I decided to create the hello world application (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/serverless-application-model/latest/developerguide/serverless-getting-started-hello-world.html) to see if I would also get the same error and I get it.

Here is the output after running sam build:

Building codeuri: [service] runtime: java11 metadata: {} functions: ['service']
C:\apache-maven-3.6.3\bin\mvn.CMD failed to return a version string using the '-v' option. The workflow is unable to check that the version of the JVM used is compatible with AWS Lambda.

Here is the output of C:\apache-maven-3.6.3\bin\mvn.CMD -v:

Apache Maven 3.6.3 (cecedd343002696d0abb50b32b541b8a6ba2883f)

There is text "The system cannot find the path specified." as an output of "mvn.CMD -v" which is not ok.

The way it worked for me is added "set JAVA_HOME=<JAVA_PATH8_JDK>" eg. set JAVA_HOME=C:\md\sw\java\in in mvn.cmd

If you are working on visual code you have to restart visual studio code after maven setup .
