    Default Runtime Exception -java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError

    Hi,
    When I ran the applet in Eclipse, the applet worked.
    But when I try the applet in HTML, it didn't show the interface, it showed:

    Runtime Exception
    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: jssc/SerialPortException

    Here are my codes.

    import java.applet.Applet;
    import java.awt.Button;
    import java.awt.TextArea;
    import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
    import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
     
     
    public class panel extends Applet implements ActionListener {
    	// parameters
    	Button wButton = new Button("W");
    	Button aButton = new Button("A");
    	Button dButton = new Button("D");
    	Button xButton = new Button("X");;
    	Button oButton = new Button("Start");;
    	Button cButton = new Button("Stop");
    	sd2bak SD = new sd2bak();
     
    	TextArea display = new TextArea();; // show log
    	String command = "."; // redundancy for actions
    	boolean status = false; // check connection
     
    	/** web user interface */
    	public void init() {
    		setLayout(null);
     
    		// buttons position
    		wButton.setBounds(70, 20, 50, 50);
    		aButton.setBounds(20, 70, 50, 50);
    		dButton.setBounds(120, 70, 50, 50);
    		xButton.setBounds(70, 120, 50, 50);
    		display.setBounds(200, 20, 130, 200);
    		oButton.setBounds(20, 120, 50, 50);
    		cButton.setBounds(120, 120, 50, 50);
     
    		// add buttons to Layout
    		add(wButton);
    		add(aButton);
    		add(dButton);
    		add(xButton);
    		add(display);
    		add(oButton);

    java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: jssc/SerialPortException
    Where is the definition for the class named in the error message? Is the path to that definition included in the html file?

    Eclipse tends to include a bunch of stuff for you. When you export out of eclipse you have to make sure everything you were using in eclipse goes with it. Obviously you missed something. What it is, where to find it, and where to put it once you find it, i have no idea. Sorry.
    Writing code is your job, helping you fix and understand it is mine.

    <-- Be sure to thank and REP (Star icon) those who have helped you. They appreciate it!

    When the JVM executes the java classes it needs to find the definition for any class referenced. It looks on the classpath to find the class definiton. Where is the definition for the missing class? It's probably in a jar file.
    The jar file needs to be accessible to the JVM.
    The HTML <applet tag has an attribute for pointing to jar files that contain java classes. Find the doc for the <applet tag and read up on the attributes for pointing to jar files.
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
