Hi! I am a new user, trying to install EJSS. I am encountering the same problem with 5.3, 6.0 and 6.01. The first time I open EjsConsole.jar after installing or editing the .EjsConsole.txt settings file, it prompts me to select a workspace directory. Once selected (I use the default /workspace inside EJS's folder), it closes. Subsequently, when opening, it also just automatically closes as well.
The error message is:
Error: Could not find or load main class org.colos.ejs.osejs.Osejs Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.colos.ejs.osejs.Osejs The program selected is NOT running. Error code=1
I cannot find any info on why this problem may be surfacing for EJS. Could I get some assistance with this?
Edit: It seems to work when I open it from Powershell. No idea why - if anyone can help to explain I would really appreciate it!
My blind Suggestion is this: make sure you have unzipped the distribution file (not jut run the EjsConsole.jar from within the zip) This can happen in Windows.
While executing, when JVM does not find a .class file with the specified name then a run time error occurs saying “Could not found or load main class”. The reason why this happens is mostly due to:
Wrong Class Name
Invalid Classpath
Main class could not be found when there is typo or wrong syntax in the fully qualified java class name or it does not exist in the provided classpath. You must ensure that you add the location of your .class file to your classpath. So, if its in the current folder, add . to your classpath. Note that the Windows classpath separator is a semi-colon( ;) . If you want to execute the main() method in MainClass, you must use the full class name, including package name, in the java command.
