Thread: Truncated class file error

Hello JavaProgrammingForums, I need a little help.
A few weeks ago one of my applets got a Truncated class file error, I have no idea how it got there and how to fix it, any help?

Thanks -Koâk

Do you get this error when running the applet locally?

If not, I think this could be due to the class files being uploaded via FTP in ascii format instead of binary format.

No I'm running it locally
