I just imported a maven project from Git repository. I am getting below error while doing mvn clean install.

It looks like you have missed setting the JAVA_HOME environment variable.

Go to environment variable setting and add JAVA_HOME and point to the directory where your JDK is installed.

In my case, my JAVA_HOME is set to

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_131
...
