Problem with running java.exe

Question

I am new to Java, I have windows XP PRO and have recently installed JDK 5.0 with net beans 4.0 beta 2 bundle to C:\. I have also set the PATH & CLASSPATH as follows
PATH = C:\jdk1.5.0\bin
CLASSPATH = .;%classpath%
I am able to compile at the comand prompt using for example javac Fruit.java
but when I try to run the program using java Fruit , I get the following message:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Fruit
Please can some one help me where am I going wrong?

Answer 1

Thakyou for the reply , but I am still having the same problem
My .Java & .class file are in C:\MyJava
My JDK is in C:\jdk1.5.0
My Command Prompt is C:\MyJava
The Only way I have managed to run my programs is, at the Command Prompt by typying
C:\MyJava>C:\jdk1.5.0\bin\java Fruit
But I am able to compile my programs by typing
C:\MyJava>javac Fruit.java
I would like to know is there any way I could run my programs by typing
C:\MyJava>java Fruit
My Source code is
public class Fruit
public static void main(String[] args)
//Declare and initialize three variables
int numOranges = 5;
int numApples = 10;
int numFruits = 0;
numFruits = numOranges + numApples;
System.out.println("A totally fruity program");
System.out.println("Total fruit is " + numFruits);
