Problem
This happens for both: maven projects, and freestyle projects, when maven target is envoked, it tries to execute mvn using absolute path. ``` [MY-Job] $ tools/Maven/Jenkins_Private_Maven/bin/mvn -f cc/pom.xml -Ddeploy_env=xxx.dev.prv -Dbranch=dev -D-Dsmdist.target=/opt/builds -U clean test -DtestGroups=unit,delegate -Do verride:server=xxx.dev.prv FATAL: command execution failed java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "tools/Maven/Jenkins_Private_Maven/bin/mvn" (in directory "workspace/MY-Job"): java.io.IOException: error=2, No such file or directory ``` I can see that mvn is installed at user's home : ``` /home/jenkins/tools/Maven/Jenkins_Private_Maven/bin/mvn ``` but it's trying to run it from the workspace: ``` /home/jenkins/workspace/MY-Job/tools/Maven/Jenkins_Private_Maven/bin/mvn ```
