I'm validating the installation of a program that consists of a few separate modules. They are not co-dependent. I have apple.jar and orange.jar, they are placed in the same folder and were developed in the same project, but run independent of each other.

Running apple.jar goes fine, but orange.jar gives me a NoClassDefFoundError pointing to apple.jar.

/usr/java/jre1.6.0_14/bin/java -jar validator.jar

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: orange/client/Apple Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: orange.client.Apple at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(Unknown Source) Could not find the main class: validator/client/StormDataXMLGenerator. Program will exit.

The manifest file lists Orange as the correct main class.

Main-Class: orange/client/Orange

Anybody know why it's giving me the NoClassDefFoundError? Thanks in advance!
