But I would greatly appreciate your help. I think I've read every article written on manifest files for jar files but I still can't get my jar file to run. I can run my class file just fine so I know my code works, but when I run it from a jar file... K:UpdatethisUpdatethisdist>java -jar updatethisupdate.jar or K:UpdatethisUpdatethisdist>java -jar update.jar or K:UpdatethisUpdatethisjava -jar update.jar I get this error: "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: updatethis/Main" It doesn't *seem* to matter where I put the update.jar -- I still get the same error. My manifest file looks like this: Manifest-Version: 1.0 Main-Class: updatethis.Main Class-Path: k:vendor1.jar k:vendor2.jar . Is there anything obvious that I'm missing?

What happens when you remove "updatethis." from the Main-Class line? I *thought* I've read every article on manifest files, jars and packages but apparently not. Entering 'manifest java jar package' into Google returns over 1,500 articles in groups and over 53,000 articles on the web. Eventually, I came across this page: http://www.cs.usfca.edu/~parrt/course/601/lectures/java.tools.html and his instructions worked out for me.
