This is might be a common question but I am not able to add class path for a JAR file in UBUNTU. I have given below all the details I know:
java is located here:
the o/p of which java
command is - /usr/bin/java
sudo vim /etc/bash.bashrc
export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/downloads/aws-java-sdk-1.3.24/lib/aws-java-sdk-1.3.24.jar
ps: downloads folder is directly under the root
sudo vim /etc/environment
CLASSPATH="/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.7.0/lib: /downloads/aws-java-sdk-1.3.24/lib/aws-java-sdk-1.3.24.jar:"
As you can see, I have added the class path in bashrc and etc/environment... but still I am getting an error while trying to run the S3Sample.java
which comes with awssdk for java.
when I compile the java file, I get the following errors:
ubuntu@domU-12-31-39-03-31-91:/downloads/aws-java-sdk-1.3.24/samples/AmazonS3$ javac S3Sample.java
S3Sample.java:25: error: package com.amazonaws does not exist
import com.amazonaws.AmazonClientException;
Now, I clearly understand that the JAR file is not added to the class path and so I am not getting the error. I've also tried javac
with the class path option - but it does not work :(
PS: JAVA home is set correctly as other java programs work properly.
