    Default Runtime Error

    I tried to run a simple java program and got this error message:

    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: welcome3 (wrong name: Welcome3)

    Default Re: Runtime Error

    How are you trying to run this? What is the name of the class? What is the name of the file?

    Hint: case matters.
