Permission Denied:
The Maven script within $BAMBOO_INSTALL/tools/apache-maven-3.6.3/bin/mvn (version may differ) does not have an executable bit set for the user running Bamboo.
No such file or directory:
The Maven script within $BAMBOO_INSTALL/tools/apache-maven-3.6.3/bin/mvn (version may differ) is not a valid script or the interpreter defined by the top line cannot be found. This might be caused a by a corruption to the file or having the file come from a DOS/MAC format.
Solution
Permission Denied:
Use chmod to add the executable bit to the mvn file. Example:
1
chmod u+x $BAMBOO_INSTALL/tools/apache-maven-3.6.3/bin/mvnNo such file or directory:
Check the validity of the $BAMBOO_INSTALL/tools/apache-maven-3.6.3/bin/mvn file. Does it execute correctly on the command line as the same user as Bamboo? If not, it may require some manual analysis to determine what's wrong since it may vary.
You can also download Bamboo again and replace the mvn script with the one that comes from the installation package for the correct operating system.
In one example, this file could be fixed by running dos2unix on the file as it was in DOS/MAC format due to coming from a different installation.
