问题
Under Linux I am trying to run a jar file as follows:
java -jar plantuml.jar -testdot
while having CLASSPATH set to any of the following (the file is located at /home/user/plantuml.jar):
export CLASSPATH=/home/user
export CLASSPATH=/home/user/
export CLASSPATH=/home/user/plantuml.jar
In either case, no matter how I define CLASSPATH, the java command gives an error Unable to access jarfile plantuml.jar. What am I doing wrong here?
回答1:
You have to supply the complete path after the parameter -jar. So for your example you have to call
java -jar /home/user/plantuml.jar -testdot
The $CLASSPATH is only evaluated to find additional files (classes/resources) but not the jar file defined in the command line.
回答2:
export CLASSPATH="/path/to/class_or_jar1":"/path/to/class_or_jar2":"${CLASSPATH}"
回答3:
Maybe you are missing name of the main class or path to the jar. Have you tried execute it:
java -jar full_path/plantuml.jar package.YourClass -testdot
Is your program depending on other classes? If yes you might want to add -cp parameter.

The classpath is used to find classes when you refer to them by name. It's essentially a list of paths (directories AND jar/zip files) where the JVM needs to look for classes, or other resources when using methods like ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream().
The value passed to the -jar option on the command line is the file-path to the JAR file.
So, it won't find a jar file if you are only referring to the jar file by name. The JAR file path in the CLASSPATH is supposed to be a path element that 'contains' other resources.
What you need to do here, is either
- Provide the full path to the jar file when trying to execute the jar
- Set the classpath to the jar file's path, and run the java command giving the name of the main class you want to execute.
