Answer 1

Looks like you don't have the collections library in your class path.

It's in the gdata/java/deps directory in the zip file. Include the google-collect-1.0-rc1.jar file in your classpath and you should be fine. (You may also need jsr305.jar - I'm not sure.)

Answer 2

need google-collect 1.0rc1.zip

Answer 3

do you remember how did you fix it? I have the same problem
