Treehouse TeacherI think you might be typing
java TreeStory.java
Remember you do not include the .java extension when running the program. You should type:
java TreeStory

668 PointsI had the same problem. Took me a few minutes to realise that it's all case sensitive. Also remember to save it every time, especially after correcting (my) many errors.... so: javac TreeStory.java java TreeStory
I'm learning!
