The command is java HelloWorld - leave out the .class -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [mailto:ibm-m...@bama.ua.edu] On Behalf Of Steve Comstock Sent: Tuesday, October 06, 2009 8:10 AM To: IBM-MAIN@bama.ua.edu Subject: Deeper java problem
Replying to my first post about a Java compile program, several people suggested it was a codepage issue. And that was my first thought, too, since I had been experimenting with various code pages in my emulator. However, with codepages matching in both the old and the new system, I cut and pasted from the old to the new and reran the compile. Same result. Michael Klaeschen suggested I check file.encoding and the symbol IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS, but I can't find those. I'm just issuing the javac command directly under omvs. More disturbing, I did a cd to the JAVA_HOME directory: cd /u/Java6_31/J6.0 And an 'ls' showed: -rw-r--r-- 1 TCPIP IPGROUP 425 Jun 3 22:39 HelloWorld.class drwxr-xr-x 2 TCPIP IPGROUP 8192 Mar 14 2008 IBM -rw-r--r-- 1 TCPIP IPGROUP 6 Jun 3 22:39 JDK_INSTALL_OK drwxr-xr-x 4 TCPIP IPGROUP 8192 Jun 3 22:39 bin -rw-r--r-- 1 TCPIP IPGROUP 833 Mar 22 2009 copyright drwxr-xr-x 13 TCPIP IPGROUP 8192 Jun 3 22:36 demo drwxr-xr-x 16 TCPIP IPGROUP 8192 Jun 3 22:39 docs drwxr-xr-x 3 TCPIP IPGROUP 8192 Jun 3 22:36 include drwxr-xr-x 13 TCPIP IPGROUP 8192 Jun 3 22:35 lib -rw-r--r-- 1 TCPIP IPGROUP 44534 Jun 3 22:39 license_en.txt drwxr-xr-x 3 TCPIP IPGROUP 8192 Jun 3 22:37 mvstools -rw-r--r-- 1 TCPIP IPGROUP 36370 Jun 3 22:40 notices.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 TCPIP IPGROUP 1694 May 29 09:41 readmefirst.zos.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 TCPIP IPGROUP 9084677 Jun 3 22:19 src.zip drwxr-xr-x 5 TCPIP IPGROUP 8192 Jun 3 22:40 standard But when I tried to run the sample, here is what I got: java HelloWorld.class Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: HelloWorld.class Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: HelloWorld.class at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:419) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:643) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:345) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:609) Could not find the main class: HelloWorld.class. Program will exit. just to be sure, I looked at PATH and CLASSPATH: printenv PATH /u/Java6_31/J6.0/bin:/usr/lpp/pli/bin:/usr/lpp/internet/bin:/usr/lpp/cobol/bin:/bin:. printenv CLASSPATH /u/scomsto/CGI:/u/scomsto/public_html/Java:/usr/lpp/internet/server_root/cgi-bin:/u/Java6_31/J6.0:/u/Java6_31/J6.0/src.zip:. In both cases, the '.' at the end should ensure a search in the current working directory. And I was running in the JAVA_HOME directory. And I can see the class right there before me.
