Method Does Not Exist When It Does!

Question

PLEASE HELP
Ages ago, i was going to do a sonic advance 3 applet to put on my website, but I gave up.
Now, i have decieded to try again, and am currently not getting very far
I call soundplayer.SetDir(getDocumentBase(),"audio/au"); and it compiles ok
BUT
when i use it in the webpage, the java console reports to me the following error :
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: SoundPlayer.SetDir(Ljava/net/URL;Ljava/lang/String;)V
     at EggmanHammer3_3.init(EggmanHammer3_3.java:12)
     at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(Unknown Source)
     at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
SoundPlayer :
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.applet.*;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.util.*;
public class SoundPlayer extends Applet {
String dir = "";
URL docbase;
AudioClip currentmain;
boolean playing = false;
     class SoundPlayerTask extends TimerTask {
          AudioClip playfile = null;
          SoundPlayerTask(AudioClip main) {
               playfile = main;
          public void run() {
               playfile.loop();
public void SetDir(java.net.URL thebasedir,java.lang.String newdir) {
dir = newdir;
public void Play(String sound,boolean useintro,int length) {
     if (!playing) {
          AudioClip intro = getAudioClip(GetURL(sound,0));
          AudioClip main = getAudioClip(GetURL(sound,1));
          if (useintro) {
               Timer timer = new Timer();
               TimerTask task = new SoundPlayerTask(main);
               intro.play();
               timer.schedule(task,length);
          else {
               main.loop();
          currentmain = main;
          playing = true;
public void Stop() {
currentmain.stop();
public void Play(String sound,boolean useintro) {
     Play(sound,useintro,0);
public URL GetURL(String sound,int mode) {
     URL theurl = null;
     String attempturl = dir + "/" + sound + "/";
     if (mode == 0) {
    attempturl += "Intro.au";
     if (mode == 1) {

          try {

Although having proggrammed in Java for almost 3/4 of a year. What do you mean by 'clear the cache'
And what the heck does that have to do with spliting one file into two
P:S : I Have New Code
