I am getting “could not find or load main class” error even though i am setting the class path correctly.

Here is my directory structure:

 src\org\apache\ws\axis2

Inside axis2 directory, i have my Client.class file.

Now, to run the Client class file, i gave the following command from src directory

java -cp "C:\Documents and Settings\F1QBWFA\My Documents\Downloads\temp\src\org\apache\ws\axis2" org\apache\ws\axis2\Client

I tried this as well: 

java -cp "C:\Documents and Settings\F1QBWFA\My Documents\Downloads\temp\src\org\apache\ws\axis2" org.apache.ws.axis2.Client

And i get the same error. What am i doing wrong here?

    Shouldn’t it be

    java -cp "C:\Documents and Settings\F1QBWFA\My Documents\Downloads\temp\src" org.apache.ws.axis2.Client

    Class path should refer to the root of your package structure, not to the specific folder of the inner package. Of course I’m assuming you have package org.apache.ws.axis2; at the beginning of Client.java
