NoClassDefFoundError org/eclipse/swt/SWTError - java

I m trying to compile an open source software . The build works fine and results into a jar file "five-server.jar". When I try to run this file from cmd , I get these errors.
C:\Users\vickey\code\five-server\dist\main>java -jar five-server.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/swt/SWTError

any suggestion what is wrong?

The SWT Jar files are platform dependent.
See http://www.jarfinder.com/index.php/java/info/org.eclipse.swt.SWTError
e.g. on Windows a suitable jar would be:
org.eclipse.swt.win32.win32.x86_3.1.0.jar
or on Mac OS X:
swt-macosx-3.0m7.jar
and so on.
You might run into call kinds of followup problems if you add this dependency e.g. whether you are
using 32bit or 64bit libraries.
It is too bad that these kind of dependency problems show up more often than not these days :-(

You have to set the classpath so that it includes at least the class org.eclipse.swt.SWTError
or the jar containing it:
java -classpath path/to/jar/containing/org.eclipse.swt.SWTError -jar five-server.jar
You should also set the Main-class attribute in the manifest file in the five-server.jar

How should I compile my java project targeting Java SE 8?

I have a Java Project (an application to play connect 4) and I want to turn it into an executable file. I created this project in VsCode, and I am using the Java Language Server (see details below). I extracted the .jar file, and used Launch4J to turn it into an executable, and when I run it, I get an error message (see below).
I researched the problem, and it seems that I need to compile my code targeting Java SE 8 rather than 17 (I have 17 currently installed). Could anyone explain to me how I should do this, or is there anything else I'm doing wrong?
The project has multiple files. I'm not sure if this is relevant, but the project has no external dependencies, although it does use javax.swing, javax.sound, and java.awt (as well as java.io.File, java.io.IOException, and java.util.Random, but I'm pretty sure those are irrelevant).
I have eclipse installed if it's necessary, but I only installed it today, and have no experience using it at all. The JDK I am using is (I believe) version 1.8.0_321. (At least this is what I get when I type in java -version.)
The Java compiler version is javac 17.0.2
When I try to run the executable generated by Launch4J, I this is the error I get:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Main has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 61.65535), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0

And the popup error:
Java Virtual Machine Launcher
Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again.
Here are the Settings I used in Launch4J:
Output File: C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Coding\Java Connect 4 v.2\Connect 4.exe
Jar: C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Coding\Java\Java Connect 4 v.2\Java Connect 4 v.2.jar
Don't wrap the jar, launch only: NOT ticked
Wrapper Manifest: none
Change dir: .
Command Line args: none
Process priority: Normal
Both Options NOT ticked
Min JRE version: 1.2.0, Prefer public JRE, but use JDK runtime if newer
Max JRE version: none, First 64-bit, then 32-bit. (This was the default.)
All other settings are default.
Download the latest Java JDK version as .exe file (“x64 Installer”) and install by clicking on the .jar file.
Now the server should start again
#Holger has answered this question. The answer to the problem was to ship a custom JRE image with the application with the help of JLink. That way it can be used regardless of the local version of JRE.

Lauch Eclipse SWT window application from command line error

First off. I am a newbie and green with respect to Java programming.
I created a Java Eclipse "SWT" "Application Window" on a Eclipse Kepler 4.3.1 (32-bit) running WindowBuilder and SWT (swt.jar). The design view is a composite.
The java application runs fine from Eclipse. I simply press the play button and presto.
Problem:
Issuing
java -cp . PkgNetAccelerator32.netAcceleratorApp
yields the following error message:

I was doing some research and several posts on other issues suggested that the cure is to create a manifest. I saw an article that said something like:
Select the src folder, right click and select export, then Java, then JAR file, specify Manifest.jar and a path on the folder, make sure the "Generate the manifest file" is selected, and press finish.
I created the manifest file and tried launching it with the following command line:
java -jar ../Manifest.jar -cp . PkgNetAccelerator32.netAcceleratorApp
That yielded the same error message above.
I saw another article that said that one should add in the swt.jar file, but that is taken care of by the manifest. No? Specifying "swt.jar" instead of the manifest that I created resulted in an error message:
no main manifest attribute, in ../swt.jar
That error message makes sense.
I am at a loss. How do I run the java application?
I am testing on my Windows 7 Professional 64-bit desktop, but I need to run on CENTOS too. That should be no problem, as I assume whatever the fix on Windows is, will work on CENTOS.
UPDATE:
I placed the two lib files in a /lib folder to match the answer given. I then issued the following command line and got the following error message.
C:\SoftDev\Projects\NetAccelerator\JavaWorkspace\NetAccelerator32>java -cp "bin/*;lib/*" PkgNetAccelerator32.netAcceleratorApp

I found the following article, which produces a command line that works, just that is not reasonable for sending. I much rather use the answer.
Lets assume you have a eclipse project structure similar to this:
Workspace
-> Project
-> src (source code directory)
-> bin (compiled byte code directory as JAR)
-> lib (jar directory)
-> .classpath (eclipse file)
-> .project (eclipse file)
I am assuming that you are exporting the JAR as an executable JAR.
So in order to run a class in that exported JAR with another JAR from the lib directory (swt.jar) while your working directory is the Project directory you will need to execute:
java -cp "bin/*:lib/*" PkgNetAccelerator32.netAcceleratorApp
Using wildcards requires Java 6 or later
Please note: CENTOS requires : as a path separator. Windows uses a semi-colon.
This will add your classes and the swt classes onto the classpath and run your main class PkgNetAccelerator32.netAcceleratorApp
SWT 32bit vs 64bit
You will either need to use a 32bit JVM locally or continue to use a 64bit JVM and use the 64bit version of swt; see swt on windows 64 bit. I would suggest you match your version of your local JVM (32bit or 64bit) with the version that you will be running on the CENTOS machine. You will however need a different swt jar for CENTOS.

NoClassDefFoundError, in the same directory why the program can't find the jar

I write a Java program that read text from excel.So I import some jar like this: poi-3.10-beta2-20130904.jar, poi-ooxml-3.10-beta2-20130904.jar, etc., I can run the program correctly in eclipse.But when I package this program with maven to the directory(C:\workspace2\change\bin),
Then I run this program in command like this :
C:\workspace2\change\bin>java GenerateVar
it occurs this error:

You need to specify classpath with all other jars/classes you use in your program.
E.g. Setting multiple jars in java classpath
When you run it from eclipse in the console there's a command that could be used to run the project, you could copy/paste it from the console to your command line.
In the command java GenerateVar you didn't set -cp option. With this option the command line will look like
java -cp poi-3.10-beta2-20130904.jar poi-ooxml-3.10-beta2-20130904.jar ... GenerateVar
Assumed the libraries are in the current dir.
How to use maven plugins to add dependency to your project and build jar you can find here.

over, I change the way do what I want to do. I use the fat jar which is the eclipse plugin to package the program

Error launching Luke(Java App) from WinXP

I downloaded luke-1.0.1.jar (Luke 1.0.1 binary without any dependencies) from http://code.google.com/p/luke/downloads/list.
And I have WinXP, with latest Java 6 downloaded from Oracle/Sun web site.
I run the command line: "java -jar luke-1.0.1.jar" and try to launch Luke, but I got following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/lucene/analysis/Analyzer

Could not find the main class: org.getopt.luke.Luke. Program will exit.
Any clue, what shall I do? I totally have no knowledge of Java.
Thanks
Hardy
So Java complains that it cant find a dependency. Which is little surprise since you downloaded a binary without dependencies.
Download the binary with all the dependencies (try the "featured" one) and you should be good.
Use luke-all.jar instead,
http://code.google.com/p/luke/downloads/detail?name=lukeall-1.0.1.jar&can=2&q=
Luke is a tool for examining lucene indices. You need to combine it with Lucene. You can either download Lucene and add appropriare JAR files to the classpath, or download a fatter Luke binary that includes Lucene.

WSDL2Java Throws Could not find main class: org.apache.axis.wsdl.WSDL2Java

I am trying to create the java files from a remote webservice. I downloaded axis 1.4, copied the lib folder to c:\data\axis\lib which contains of these files:
axis.jar
axis-ant.jar
commons-discovery-0.2.jar
commons-logging-1.0.4.jar
jaxrpc.jar
log4j.properties
log4j-1.2.8.jar
saaj.jar
wsdl4j-1.5.1.jar
I added the c:\data\axis\lib folder to the %AXISCLASSPATH%. Now I am trying to create the java classes using this cmd:
java -cp %AXISCLASSPATH% org.apache.wsdl.WSDL2JAVA http://myurl.com?wsdl
However I keep getting the following error message:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/axis/wsdl/
WSDL2Java

Can someone help me to get this working?
Add the jars to the classpath individually if you're using a Java version before 6. If you're using Java 6, see here if you want to use wildcards.
try
java -cp %AXISCLASSPATH% org.apache.wsdl.WSDL2Java http://myurl.com?wsdl
Class names are case sensitive
Login as eucalyptis and compile and it will find all of the jars - this took me forever to figure out!
package structure is wrong. Please use org.apache.axis.wsdl.WSDL2Java
