The error is saying that it can't find the 'main' method.

Did you try to run the '.Java' file?

try to run it without the extension

E.g.

java HelloWorld

instead of

java HelloWorld.java

First of all, never place anyting into the "bin" directory of jdk (or really in any directory of the jdk/jre).

Second of all, does your class contain the following method defintion:

 Help with Code Tags 
 Java Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
public static void main(String[] args) {
  // your code here
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
  // your code here
}

and I mean that exact method definition? Bcause the error you listed, says it does not.

Well I would like to say thanks

I was getting this error because i forgot to put array brackets after args

I mean instead of String args[] i had written String args

so the problem is solved now
