Question

I am attempting to install Hibernate3 onto my linux server but I’m having a hard time figuring out what to do to get it to work. I have tried the following:

• copy required jars into a folder and called the folder via “java -classpath etc.” and got

java -classpath /home/mcmaster/javalibs/* -jar craftbukkit.jar
Error: Could not find or load main class .home.mcmaster.javalibs.dom4j-1.6.1.jar

• load the java command while calling only the core hibernate which resulted in normal class not found error
• on a whim installed to system java lib location with no affect
• used apt-get to install libhibernate3-java with no change
• I have attempted to export $CLASSPATH=~/javalibs which has all the required jars

I’m literally pulling my hair out as an intermediate java user trying to learn some more advanced things(to me).

Here’s the error I’m getting when trying to call the Session Class:

Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.hibernate.Session

Looks like you forgot the quotation marks. Try
java -classpath '.:/home/mcmaster/javalibs/*' -jar craftbukkit.jar (as seen on wikipedia).

EDIT: I am guessing that craftbukkit.jar is executable.
