Could not load main method

Is it something wrong with the work space , as when I am trying to run the code I always get the error saying that "Could not find or load main class Introductions.java ".

I tried this code on IDE which is working fine.

Does anyone else faced this issue , and if so how you solved that

Hi Marius.

Have you saved and compiled your code?

Try this on the console: javac Introductions.java && java Introductions

Make sure you have saved your code, then try the above.

Let me know how you get on.

Steve.

Hi Steve,

Got it sorted , when running command "java Introductions" I was adding .java at the end which was causing problem.

Thanks for response
