Hi.
I wrote an application intended to be run from the command line using the Netbeans IDE. It runs fine from the IDE, but when I run it from a command line, I get the following error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/soap/SOAPConnectionFactory
at Retrieval.SoapClient.<init>(SoapClient.java:20)
at Retrieval.Retriever.GetUrlInformationFromAlexa(Retriever.java:108)
at Retrieval.Main.main(Main.java:58)
I thought it might be a classpath problem, but the classpath appears to be the same from both the command line and the IDE. I tried again running it from the command line as follows:
java -verbose -classpath activation.jar;saaj-api.jar;saaj-impl.jar;jaxp-api.jar;mail.jar -jar MyFile.jar <args>
It still didn't work. There IS code before this error occurs; it appears to be a run-time problem.
This is the line that appears to be causing the problem:
SOAPConnectionFactory scf = SOAPConnectionFactory.newInstance();
In the IDE, I did set the compile and run-time libraries to include:
activation.jar, saaj-api.jar, saaj-impl.jar, jaxp-api.jar
Advice/suggestions would be much appreciated.
