But you can use the snapshot function in the workspace and provide the link to that.

229,785 PointsYou'd need to show the code along with the error for an accurate answer, but one common cause for an error occurring at the beginning of a line is when the semicolon was omitted on the previous line.
If that's not it, post the code (with Markdown formatting).

console.printf("Hello, my name is Kike%n");
