Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError maven jar

i am new to maven, after running Maven with mvn clean package command.
it compiles the project into an executable jar.
i run the jar in the terminal and got this error:
$ java -jar create_pass_criteria-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/mprv/automation/core/exceptions/AutomationException

i have a lot of jars that i use in my code by importing them.
how can i make the jar also include those jars?
is this what this error means?
appreciate any help,
thank you

Try it
Just add all the required libraries to the classpath when using java -jar target/PriseDeNotes-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar with the --classpath argument.

org/apache/poi/openxml4j/exceptions/InvalidFormatException using JXLS

I am using JXLS Java library to generate excel reports. I am trying to run the sample getting started tutorial (Object collection output demo). As suggested in the tutorial I am using maven to specify the required libraries in my project build configuration file. Below is the java code used
List<Employee> employees = generateSampleEmployeeData();
try(InputStream is = ObjectCollectionDemo.class.getResourceAsStream("object_collection_template1.xls")) {
try(OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream("target/" + fileName)) {
Context context = new Context();
context.putVar("employees", employees);
JxlsHelper.getInstance().processTemplate(is, os, context);
}
}
When i run the program in my eclipse i get the below exception:
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.

Below is a snapshot of the maven dependencies
Java Version: 1.8
Environment: Windows 7
IDE: Eclipse Neon

It looks like you have an issue with some XML dependencies required for Apache POI processing.
I can see them in your dependencies screenshot however for some reason they are not in effect when you are running your program. May be there is some conflict between the dependencies.
Try to create a minimal jxls project by just adding only the following two dependencies and see if it works
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jxls</groupId>
<artifactId>jxls</artifactId>
<version>2.4.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.jxls</groupId>
<artifactId>jxls-poi</artifactId>
<version>1.0.12</version>
</dependency>
Then you can add your own dependencies one by one and see at which point it breaks.

Not seeing very much in the way of code in your question, so I'll be shooting blanks here. It almost looks like you have a version mismatch with the file object_collection_template1.xls being created with a different version of Excel than JXLS is compatible with, at least as its written.

Apache POI NoClassDefFoundError while reading excel files

I am attempting to run this code:
public class ExcelSimpleTest {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
File f = new File("C:\\Users\\yaron\\Desktop\\Test.xlsx");
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
XSSFWorkbook wb=new XSSFWorkbook(fis);
Sheet sheet=wb.getSheetAt(0);
System.out.println(sheet.getRow(0).getCell(0).getStringCellValue());
}
}
And am getting this error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/collections4/ListValuedMap

I checked on the internet and copied over the Apache POI files and don't understand what my problem is.

It Looks like you miss the commons-collection4.jar in your classpath. Download it and add it to your classpath. If you use maven you can add
<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.commons/commons-collections4 -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.commons</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-collections4</artifactId>
<version>4.1</version>
</dependency>
to your pom.
If not you can download it here

Spark Java error in standalone application

Any thoughts?

This exception may also occur if your maven dependencies do not have <scope> set to compile time (default) and dependency jars are not available at compile time. For instance if maven dependencies have <scope>provided</scope> in your pom.xml compiler will assume that the JRE/environment will provide these dependency jars but when the sources are compiled and these dependencies are not found, this exception will be thrown.
For example - below may lead to this exception if spark-mllib_2.11 dependency is not found during compile time although they are added and there is no error during editing;
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.spark</groupId>
<artifactId>spark-mllib_2.11</artifactId>
<version>2.2.0</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

I had this problem because my version of java that was as default was 9, and somehow Spark didn't recognize it. So I changed to version 8 and it worked. To change in linux :
sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.8.0-openjdk-amd64
In your case you may want another version, so choose yours (to list the versions you have in your computer use the -l option).

Had to set relative paths in the class path so the executable could locate the jar files

How to add attachment to an existing JIRA Issue using rest-client API

I could create a jira issue using the rest client API, but i wasn't able to attach the screeshot/attachment to the exsiting JIRA issue. Would be really helpful if anyone could provide a solution which would be really appreciated.
I just wrote the below code snippet for attaching a jpeg file to the existing JIRA Issue. But then i experienced "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/commons/httpclient/HttpConnectionManager"
Code Snippet :-
private static String addAttachment(String attachmentfilepath) throws URISyntaxException, FileNotFoundException{
final java.net.URI jiraServerUri = new java.net.URI("https://oliveits.atlassian.net");
FileInputStream fileStreamPath = new FileInputStream(attachmentfilenamepath);
JerseyJiraRestClientFactory factory = new JerseyJiraRestClientFactory();
NullProgressMonitor pm = new NullProgressMonitor();
System.out.println("Server Url :"+jiraServerUri);
JiraRestClient restClient = factory.createWithBasicHttpAuthentication(jiraServerUri,"mobileqa","MobileQA1234");
Issue issue1 = restClient.getIssueClient().getIssue(newKey, pm);
final java.net.URI AttachmentUri = new java.net.URI(jiraServerUri+"/rest/api/2/issue/"+newKey+"/attachments");
System.out.println("URI :"+issue1.getAttachmentsUri());
//restClient.getIssueClient().addAttachment(pm,issue1.getAttachmentsUri(), fileStreamPath , imageName);
restClient.getIssueClient().addAttachment(pm, AttachmentUri, fileStreamPath, imageName);
return attachmentfilepath;
}
Exception:-

Just added the missing jar files to the classpath. But I'm getting an exception as mentioned below.
Exception Msg-1: com.sun.jersey.api.client.ClientHandlerException: A message body writer for Java class com.sun.jersey.multipart.MultiPart, and Java type class com.sun.jersey.multipart.MultiPart, and MIME media type multipart/form-data; boundary=Boundary_1_18541827_1358346116249 was not found

You issue comes from inability to find org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpConnectionManager class. Look for commons-httpclient JAR in your classpath.

You can try this :
String issueKey = "your-issue";
JiraRestClient restClient
= AsynchronousJiraRestClientFactory()
.createWithBasicHttpAuthentication(
getJiraUri(),
username,
password);
Issue issue = restClient.getIssueClient().getIssue(issueKey).claim();
restClient.getIssueClient().addAttachments(issue.getAttachmentsUri(), file).claim();
restClient.close();
in the pom.xml
