Scala Error: Could not find or load main class in both Scala IDE and Eclipse

Question

Here is my problem, I know there are lots of answers for similar questions, however none of them worked after I tried. I'm using both Scala IDE 4.6 and eclipse Oxygen to run the code and all failed on this error.

Here's my scala compiler configuration:

Here is my run configuration:

Here is my code, file structure and error showed in console:

Here is the information Problem console:

From online answer, I have already tried to clean the project before building, I also tried all the versions of JVM and Scala compiler, all of those didn't help.

The code was directly import from a online course code, so I believe there shouldn't be any errors in the code.

Answer 1

I think this should be your folder structure

Scala0
└── src
    └── main
        └── scala
            └── com.ks.sparkscala
                └── FriendsByAge

In your case create a folder main/scala inside src and copy the package inside it.

Please follow here for the project structure

I hope this helped!

Answer 2

For Intellij IDE, use the following procedure:

1. Go to the drop down at right top of window and select "Edit Configuration".

2. On the pop-up screen, select "Scala-console" in left side, and in the right side, select your module name under "Use class path and SDK of module.

Answer 3

In the eclipse -->project properties-->scala compiler ---> change the scala installation.

It is working for me .

Answer 4

As far I can see your package structure is com.ks.sparkscala which is different from the declared one in FriendsByAge.scala, com.sundogsoftware.spark Hope this helps.

Answer 5

I had a similar problem. I’ve got Could not find or load main class in IJIdea IU-182.4892.20 / Scala 2.13 for .scala file with such structure:

package ...

import ...

object Main extends App {
...
}

//other traits, classes, objects

But when I moved //other traits, classes, objects to the separate .scala file in the same package my problem was solved.
