Go here to get a better explaintion than my simple answer. I had this error and I looked all over online in many many forums. I then went back to my textbooks website which gave me the above page.
You can do two things

When compiling the fiile type javac -classpath . yourfilenam.java
when you go to run the program type java -classpath . yourfilename
You MUST add the space . space inbetween -crosspath and what you named your file.


It talks that you can change having to type the -classpah by eliminating the variable crosspath. I wouldn't mind doing that if I knew how to get the variable back if my computer objects. I don't liike to delete things if I don't know how to get it back or I definantly don't want it.

If this works for you pass it on to any forums you see.

Says it all really, it can't find the class.
What part of "No Classdef(inition) Found Error" don't you understand?

import java.sql.*;

    public static void Main(String[] ar)
    {
    try
