A decent developer trick is to ensure your maven points to the right JAVA version, and if you have freshly installed maven it will be pointing to the default available.
On my system’s dev or otherwise I normally take the help of the profile.d directory to allow me set the custom version.
This directory defines a system-wide behavior.
I created a maven.sh in this folder & put the contents as below
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-11.0.16.1.1-1.el7_9.x86_64
export M2_HOME=/usr/share/maven
export MAVEN_HOME=/usr/share/maven
export PATH=${M2_HOME}/bin:${PATH}Then source it source /etc/profile.d/maven.sh
Once you do that you can validate the mvn --version
