java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError while using SourceAFIS in my Java Application using Maven [duplicate]

I am trying simple Maven app with Log4J ver 2-beta 9. In my pom.xml file I have these two dependencies (as is mentioned in Log4J Maven webpage):
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j-api</artifactId>
<version>2.0-beta9</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.logging.log4j</groupId>
<artifactId>log4j-core</artifactId>
<version>2.0-beta9</version>
</dependency>
Eclipse sees Log4J library:
But when I package the app and run it this Exception is thrown:
java -cp target/notification-1.0.0.jar com.example.Sandbox
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/LogManager

I searched for this Exception and it seems to be related to CLASSPATH variable.
How should be CLASSPATH set for Maven project?

Maven is a build tool. It doesn't help you much running the final application.
You can use mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="com.example.Sandbox" to run your app (see the question Maven Run Project) but this gets tedious when you have to pass arguments to it.
You can get the classpath that Maven used to compile your application with mvn dependency:build-classpath
That will print the classpath to the console. Note that it will be missing target/notification-1.0.0.jar
Another useful tool in this area is the assembly plugin; it will create one very big JAR with all the dependencies rolled into a single file when you specify the descriptor jar-with-dependencies.

Java Exceptions error when trying to execute .jar on Debian Jessie

A teacher of mine created a program on java around 2005, he has always used MacOS. He sent the .jar to me and a classmate, both linux (me Debian 8 and him Ubuntu) and we can't execute the program because it returns a lot of exceptions.
At first I thought it could have been because the program was too old but my teacher can run it in his 1 year old updated mac perfectly fine.
Checked and Debian comes with OpenJDK as default. Havent installed anything, is there anything I should be installing for it to run?
PS: if I double click the .jar I can see the folders.
The exceptions are:

I don't know anything about java so please if you can try to be as basic as you can. I am also new to Debian, so I really don't know if there's a package missing from the default installation.
Edit:
The MANIFEST.MF file is
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.8.2
Created-By: 1.6.0_24-b07-334-10M3326 (Apple Inc.)
Class-Path: lib/Jama-1.0.2-ed.jar lib/jfreechart-1.0.6.jar lib/ant.jar
lib/jcommon-1.0.10.jar
X-COMMENT: Main-Class will be added automatically by build
Main-Class: com.cmcweb.electronicstructure.CompleteDOSPlotter

You have to download JFreeChart.jar libary (http://www.java2s.com/Code/Jar/j/Downloadjfreechartjar.htm) because your teacher didn't include external classes in his jar file.
Put JFreeChart.jar into /your_linux_path/jre/lib/ext folder and after that it should works.
P.S. The same you have to do with Jama.jar and jcommon.jar

Make sure you have all jars with the version from the manifest file downloaded in a lib directory. Lib directory should be placed in the same directory as your jar, the names of dependency jars should be exactly the same as these from classpath in manifest.
So in your case, it may not work with the newest JFreeChart version. You need to find and download version 1.0.6

How to fix ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory?

When i run the app it getting exception

I have put all the jar files in lib folder.
I don't know how to solve this, where is my mistake.

Add this in your pom file:
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-logging</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-logging</artifactId>
<version>1.2</version>
</dependency>

It works for me after adding this jar file
commons-logging-1.2.jar
You can download it from here.

Include hibernate jar files (especially the required jars) in your lib folder
antlr-2.7.7.jar
commons-collections-3.2.1.jar
dom4j-1.6.1.jar
javassist-3.12.1.GA.jar
hibernate-core-4.0.1.Final.jar
hibernate-commons-annotations-4.0.1.Final.jar
hibernate-jpa-2.0-api-1.0.1.Final.jar
jboss-logging-3.1.0.CR2.jar
jboss-transaction-api_1.1_spec-1.0.0.Final.jar

I had a similar problem: In my project the solution was to add the following jars of org.apache.commons:
commons-logging-1.2
commons-dbcp2-2.1.1
commons-pool2-2.4.2

For me problem solved post download & adding jar "commons-logging-1.2.jar"

I am able to compile my code and run it in my local (windows) machine using Eclipse. However, when I do it on my remote (ubuntu) machine, I get the following error:

I have added the following entry in my pom.xml file:
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-io</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-io</artifactId>
<version>2.4</version>
</dependency>
Can someone please help me understand what else I need to do to get this working? Thanks.

that means the jar is available at compile time but when you are running your application this jar isn't present in classpath and so the error

Try to look into the build path of your project and see if commons-io artifact is present there in the build path.

I am using Twilio to send SMS messages from my web app and I have almost completed the integration. It's sending the SMS, but an error is being generated and I don't understand why. I have included a JSON dependency from this json and this file link but I'm still getting an error. Which other jar do I need to include?

screenshot showing json added
Update this is the new screesnshot

You have missed jackson-core-asl.jar 1.9.13 in you project. You can make use of this Maven POM dependency
<dependency>
<groupId>org.codehaus.jackson</groupId>
<artifactId>jackson-core-asl</artifactId>
<version>1.9.13</version>
</dependency>
Hope this solves your problem. Check this link for more information. Direct link for download
Class is present in the jar Screen below
Remove your java-json.jar and add the jackson-core-asl.jar
