Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/jdeveloper/JDeveloper
I'm probably an idiot for not knowing right away what the problem is now. I know that java can't find the correct jar file containing the JDeveloper class, but how do I know where that is? jdevinstalldir/jdev/lib/jdev.jar has already been inserted into the classpath... what now?

Without it, it's a lot harder to figure out what is missing. Does Jdev have a log file that you could look at to try to find out which class is missing? Otherwise, you can try a shotgun approach. Locate all your jar files in your Jdev installation (find /jdevinstalldir -name *.jar) and make sure that they are all in your classpath.
Check the script that starts the IDE and see if it is setting a classpath. Sometimes the CP is set using a command line option of the java command (i.e. something like: java -cp {classpath} com.oracle.IDEStartup). Make sure all the jar files that the script expects to find actually exist.
The Eclipse error message is a little more descriptive. It's looking for a native library (as opposed to a Java class file) and it's telling you exactly which one it is looking for "/usr/local/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.swt.gtk64_3.0.1/os/linux/amd64/libsw t-pi-gtk-3063.so"

Thanks for the reply. That's the whole error as far as jdev is concerned. When I try to run eclipse I get the following error, which may or may not be related:
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /usr/local/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.swt.gtk64_3.0.1/os/linux/amd64/libswt

Also, I just upgraded my java rpm (and set JAVA_HOME to the new location), so I know all the files are there. It must be a jar file that isn't in the classpath. What jar files would normally be in the CLASSPATH?

Are you giving us the entire exception message? It should tell you which class it is looking for. I think it usually prints right before the stack trace.
A NoClassDefFoundError means either a .jar file is missing or your CLASSPATH enviornment no longer contains the necessary file.

Subject: Re: NoClassDefFoundError after upgrade to FC3
Well, I uncovered one big clue. Whenever you upgrade to FC3, the system attempts to install gcc-java (and does) which can screw up the workings of your Sun java considerably. Among other things, FC3 installs a /usr/bin/java script that points to the gcc-java code so when you type java -version it gives you a bunch of gcc output. If you disable the /usr/bin/java script, then it will revert back to the Sun java.
However, doing that did not fix my problem. Jdeveloper still gives the same error I posted previously, as if it's searching for something in the classpath. Eclipse does something similar. Can anyone help me understand what I might need in the classpath for this to work again?

Hi everybody. I use jDeveloper from Oracle to program, create GUIs and manage my various projects. It's not open-source, but it's a very good program. I have been using it without errors for at least a year.
Then, when I upgraded to Fedora Core 3, it was the only thing on my computer that stopped working. When I click on the icon on my desktop, nothing pops up, and top shows a massive load on the CPU for "jdev".
When I run it in a terminal window, I get the following error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:141) at oracle.ide.IdeCore.class$(IdeCore.java:89) at oracle.ide.IdeCore.startupImpl(IdeCore.java:775) at oracle.ide.Ide.startup(Ide.java:539) at oracle.jdeveloper.JDeveloper.launch(JDeveloper.java:58) at oracle.jdeveloper.JDeveloper.main(JDeveloper.java:37)
I've got the same java SDK I had before, and the configuration files are pointing to it. Can anybody think of why an upgrade to Fedora Core
3 would be causing this error?
Thanks, Cyrus
