Answer 1

This thread elsewhere on SO might help.

Jenkins looks for the mvn binary under $M2_HOME/bin/.

The ws/trunk in your logs suggests M2_HOME is pointing to $WORKSPACE:

(in directory "<http://localhost:8090/job/bbc/ws/trunk")

But usually $WORKSPACE is a file path, not a url.

All of which is to say, double check both your M2_HOME and WORKSPACE env variables.

The M2_HOME in particular is confusing since Jenkins lets you defined it at both instance and job level.
