MAVEN_OPTS problems

[likenetbeans]

Hi all,

When I build a maven (bundled) project with Netbeans 7 I see in the netbeans output window:
---
Tasks: [MAVEN_OPTS, mx=1500M]
Unknown lifecycle phase "MAVEN_OPTS"
---
I have in my .profile: export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xms256m -Xmx512m"

I looks like Netbeans itself sets MAVEN_OPTS to something invalid and I can not change it. Does anybody know how to change this?

Thanks!

You can modify the run/debug action for your project and
add an environment variable in the 'set properties' box.

Use the Add... button or type
Env.MAVEN_OPTS=<your options here>

I found the solution:
In my home directory there was a file .mavenrc which contained:
set MAVEN_OPTS -Xmx=1500M
I deleted this file and maven builds beautifully.
I do not know if this is a MAC thing, but for all the forum readers: if your maven refuses to build: check ~/.mavenrc
Thanks for the support!
