Amazon MQ Workshop Unable to complete setup


I followed the setup guide for Cloud9 IDE Workspace setup for Amazon MQ workshop. When I ran ./setup.sh I got the following output but the setup could not be completed:


Installing jq...
Updating java to 1.8...
Updating maven to 3.6...

There was no error, just the 3 lines and I waited forever.


Solution

  • Apparently, the setup file tried to download maven from http://mirror.cc.columbia.edu/pub/software/apache/maven/maven-3/3.6.1/binaries/apache-maven-3.6.1-bin.tar.gz but the site could not be reached.

    The solution was to edit setup.sh file and replace the URL with the direct link from apache website

    https://archive.apache.org/dist/maven/maven-3/3.6.1/binaries/apache-maven-3.6.1-bin.tar.gz
