error while running jar file

[ernieBob]

Hello all

I have successfully compiled my project in the netbeans IDE but the jar file will not run due to the following error in terminal:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/jdesktop/layout/GroupLayout$Group

I have run previous versions of the jar file without this problem. Can anyone point me to the cause of this problem?

Thank you in advance

Since it is NoClassDefFoundError, I think may be a class file is missing or corrupted in the jar file. Extract the jar file and check all the required class files are included in the jar file.

Is it help to you.
