RE : JAVA Question for ALL

[Jitty]

I would like help from all the Java Gurus out there.
Recently , I tried to run my java code and though it compiles fine when running it gives me an error saying "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Hello...
I have checked my path and it is correct and actually I had not done anything to the computer before and it was running before. I wonder if ther is anything that I had missed out or if I am over looking something.
PLEASE HELP...THANKS TO EVERYONE

Your classpath is not set to include the directory that your Hello.class file is in.
Do a search for classpath (see below the 2 buttons above) and you will find zillions of threads on classpath.

Oh yeah, Jitty-
Please change your name to be compliant with JavaRanch's naming policy.
Your ID should be 2 separate names with more than 1 letter each. It should not be obviously fictitious. We really want this to be a professional forum and would prefer that you use your REAL name.
Thanks,
Cindy

The classpath does not include the class which you are trying to run.i.e,
If you are in c:\ and compiled in the same directory and your classpath is ../jdk1.2/bin
Then it won't find the class and give the error

It sounds like you do not have a main method in the class you are trying to run. Do you have a main method?
OR
Are you using a class that requires to be imported and failed to do so. Check your import statments.
