NoClassDefFoundError when running Netbeans 6.8 application

Question

My application has recently started throwing NoClassDefFoundError errors when I am running my application from within NetBeans. It never used to do this.

And when I run this outside of NetBeans using the command line argument that it provides once built, these errors are not produced

Is this a bug with Netbeans?

I have reinstalled NetBeans as I recently had another that was resolved by reinstalling, however the problem still persists.

Outside NetBeans

Answer 1
