Can not find Main Class - Can't Run Application

I have at this for a while and it is drivng me crazy... I have an application that I want execute in a bat file. I have checked the runtime environment by executing java and javaw, both which give option on error messages. I have set the classpath to point too the class subdirectory. Here it is.., Every time I execute the bath file or execute the javaw command, I get the "Can not find main class" message.
I am using XP ...
Help please...
Thanks for all your help.

when you set the classpath I presume you mean that your running java or javaw as:
javaw.exe -cp %classpath%;.;c:\library\myfiles com.mycomp.myapp.MainClassIf your using a jar then you must specify the jar in the class path.
Don't presume it will find the jar. Other than that, you will have
to provide more details.

CAN NOT FIND MAIN CLASS

Why after i have unzipped and edited the classes in the jar file and zipped them together again, it gives me the message "CAN NOT FIND MAIN CLASS"?
This is after i have edited any class in the .jar zip.I did not edit the Manifest text file,can someone who has experienced this problem show me how to overcome it.
Thank you.

i think you have to read the "java tutorial on Jar files".
i guess after you have exracted the .jar file then you've edited the ".class"(i dont know how you did it) but i think you mean ".java" you should create another .jar file to be able to reflect the changes you have made, then set the main-class attribute of the newly created .jar file.

Can't find main class - program will end

Dear forum readers,
Recently upgraded from Win2k pro to XP pro .. installation ran to conclusion w/ no fatal errors BUT upon booting new system I now receive an error message "Java Virtual Machine Launcher can't find main class, program will end" .. I am not aware that this error is causing any problems BUT it is annoying and I'd like to be able to fix the problem so I don't have to close the error message at each startup .. please help!
Thanks in advance, Larry

Try this
java -XbootClasspath/a -jar <<Prog name>>
I think you are trying in windows XP.
Also you need to modify if there are any other jars to be reference. For eg if a.jar is also required for this try as below
java -XbootClasspath/a:a.jar -jar <<Prog name>>

Installing 10g on Windows XP machine JVM launcher "Can't find main class"

I am trying to install 10g Release 2 on a Windows XP machine. I downloaded the zip from the OTN. Unzipped the file. No problems. Tried to run the OUI, it opened up a shell and said to wait. The shell closed and a message frome the JVM Launcher displayed "Can't find main class. Program will exit." I have seen several people on this and other discussion boards having this problem, but have yet to get a solution. Please help.

What's the value of CLASSPATH environment variable? Possibly a non-oracle application has set this variable and the installer catches it. If there is such a variable, comment it out and try again.

Background callable object : can not find this class name

Hi All ,
I am following this tutorial link for creating background callable object
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/9a/e8934258a5ca6ae10000000a155106/frameset.htm
I have created java and enterprise application DC and deployed successfully. But while creating CO in design time when i am selecting application and entering class as com.examples.bckgco.UserDetailsCallableObject for Implementation Class Name , and on click next i m getting exception as "can not find this class name". package and class name are correct still getting this excetpion message. Plz help me to resolve this solution.
Regards
Kavita

Hi, kavita.
First, make sure you choosed the correct container when you created the background CO.
Second, make sure your package name was "com.examples.bckgco" and class name was "UserDetailsCallableObject". The exception which you got just means you entered incorrect name.
It doesn`t relate to your program.
Best Regards.

Jar file could not find main class.. I cant see why?

I have read loads of tutorials on this and it should be very straight forward but i STILL cant make a working jar file of my program.. please see if you can see anything wrong with what im doing..
my program is one .java file that compiles perfectly, and is runnable both through eclipse and by using the command prompt.. i made a jar file using both eclipse and the command prompt, and neither worked.. every time i run it by double clicking it i get the error "could not find main class, program will exit". here is the contents of my jar:
CorePackage\IPEmailer.class
CorePackage\IPEmailer$1.class
CorePackage\IPEmailer$SMTPAuthenticator.class
META-INF\MANIFEST.MF
the MANIFEST.MF file contains:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Class-path: .
Created-By: 1.6.0_02 (Sun Microsystems Inc.)
Main-Class: CorePackage.IPEmailer
(yes there is a blank line at the end)
the class mentioned in 'Main-Class' has a main method that looks like this:
public static void main(String[] args) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    new IPEmailer();
}the program uses 2 external jar files:
activation.jar
mail.jar
and reads a file called:
ipemailer.ini
and writes a file called:
ip.txt
the program has no GUI and is intended to run 'silently' in the background
please help me understand what is wrong with this

package CorePackage;
import javax.mail.*;
import javax.mail.Authenticator;
import javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication;
import javax.mail.internet.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
public class IPEmailer implements Runnable{
      * @param args
     String recipientsinput[]={""};
     String subject;
     String body;
     String server;
     String user;
     String pass;
     String from;
     String urlString = "http://www.whatismyip.org";
     String currentIP;
     String ipFromFile;
     boolean webFailed;
     long interval = 900000; //15 mins
     long oldInterval;
     Thread t = new Thread(this);
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          // TODO Auto-generated method stub
          new IPEmailer();
     public IPEmailer(){
                     ..........etccould the problem be that the class is a thread? i cant see why it would be, but ive never made a jar where the main class also 'implements runnable'

JAR: - Could not find main class

I'm sorry, I know this issue has been posted before but I am a bit confused with my situation.
After making a jar on my computer, I run it, and the program loads and runs perfectly.
However, when I try the jar on someone else's computer, it doesn't work, and gives the "could not find main class" message. The other computer has JRE but not JDK, so I don't know if that makes a difference.
Anyways, my main class file is located in a package called hw2, and the whole project is located in a folder called HW2. So my class file is located in something like C:\School\HW2\hw2\Main.class.
My Manifest.txt file is located in the \School\HW2 directory and has the following with a new line at the end:
Main-Class: hw2.Main
At the command prompt, I go to my C:\School\HW2 directory and I type the following to create the jar:
jar cvmf Manifest.txt test.jar hw2\*.class
My jar file has the following contents:
META-INF/
META-INF/MANIFEST.MF
hw2/Bank.class
hw2/GUIInterface.class
hw2/Main.class
Did I write the manifest.txt file correctly? Am I in the right directory when creating the jar file? Am I executing the jar command wrong? How come it works on my computer but not on someone else's?

Are you certain you're executing the jar in the same way on both machines?
For example, are you sure you're not executing the unjarred class files when you run on your local machine?

I have iphone 3g, phone is working very slow and even i can not been able to close the running application

i have the Iphone 3g, OS 4.3.2.1
My Phone is working terribly slow, and even i can not been able to close the running application
for closing application Every time i have to restart the phone
can any 1 help me solve this problem
with best regards,
prakash

You must have an iPhone 3GS then if its running 4.3.2
The iPhone 3G can only update to 4.2.1 iOS.
Reset the iPhone
Hold the top silver button and the home button (just below the display of the iPhone)
Do this at the same time for about 10 seconds until you see an Apple.
The iPhone then should take 1-3 minutes to restart and it should be fine

Java server page compiler can not find a class defined in a java bean file

I have a jsp file using java bean. The java bean class file is uploaded into the server and also the directory to this java bean .class file is included in the Unix environment CLASSPATH. This .jsp file is registered and should be compiled and excecuted automatically.
WHen I try to invoke this .jsp file, the jsp compiler error, saying the class defined by java bean can not be found. I already include this path in teh CLASSPATH, I thought the jsp compiler will go to the right place according to CLASSPATH to find the referenced class.
Can anyone tell me what I have done wrong or what should I do in order to allow jsp compiler to find the class refrenced by .jsp file and defined by java bean file?
Thank you so much

hello friends,
i am also facing the same problem of not finding bean class files for both jsp and servlet though it is placed in same package. the problem of not finding bean class file for jsp is experienced in Tomcat server only whereas in Blazix, there is no such error and the file is compiled and runs successfully.
i have checked Tomcat properly. there is no error in its configuration also servlets without the use of bean files run successfully. so please can anybody guide me about what is the problem and how to solve it. plz its urgent .

I upgraded my iphone to 5.0.1 and can not find carrier and can not make a call freezed.

I upgraded my iphone 4 to ios 5.0.1 yesterday. Today the device can not find carrier and if finds than it freezes when I tap call. I swictched on and off but no change.

No. There is no legit way to go back at all.
It seems that you had a hacked iphone that was locked back to the rightful carrier when you updated as it should.
