maven - NoClassDefFoundError while executing main class using java -classpath command

Question

I have a Maven project and within that I have a Main.java class that contains the main() method that I would like to execute from Windows command prompt. I am using the following command to execute it but it fails with an error message (show below). This program works fine from IDE.

Similar question at stackoverflow Why am I getting a NoClassDefFoundError in Java? has been listed but does not provide a solution. It only explain the problem in a detailed manner.

Please guide.

Command to execute main class:

java -classpath targetjobchain-dataloader.jar com.ebayenterprise.ecp.jobs.Main

Error Log:

C:office-datav11-Projectsjobchain-dataloader>java -classpath targetjobchain-dataloader.jar com.ebayenterprise.ecp.jobs.Main

Answer 1

Was able to get the program working by adding following plugins in the pom.

The first dependency creates the META-INF/manifest.mf file in the jar and the second one creates the lib folder in the existing target directory and copies all the dependencies in there.

  <plugin>
        <!-- Build an executable JAR -->
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>

                    <classpathPrefix>lib/</classpathPrefix>
                    <mainClass>com.ebayenterprise.ecp.jobs.Main</mainClass>
                </manifest>
            </archive>
