Create REST APIs With Spring And Java Skill Path - Spring Project Layout and Running Locally - Help please!

another update if anyone needs to know… the java home path should be C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-19 without bin on the end.

I think this section of the course needs to be rewritten, it has taken me a few hours on different days to figure this all out. I think saying ‘if you run into errors, check xyz’ is not really beginner-friendly. You’d need an explanation on how to check xyz.

Update, now I am getting this error:

JAVA_HOME = "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-19\bin" 
Please set the JAVA_HOME variable in your environment to match the 
location of your Java installation. 

I am really stuck on the chapter " Spring Project Layout and Running Locally".

I can’t get the project to run. I do feel like the instructions are not very clear at all.

For example, first I had an error about ‘mvn’ and ‘mvnw’ not being recognised. It is because you need to install them - something that wasn’t mentioned in the article.

I got this working but now I am getting a different error about “Java Home not found in your environment”. it is in my environment, so I don’ t know why it isn’t working. I’d welcome some help if anyone is able to do that!

Thanks
