are you attempting to run the program from the directory where the .class file is?
are you using packages? if so do you have the correct directory structure?

Please post the code. It will help us to figure out the problem.

It would be good to see the code, information on the directory structure and the command line you are using to fire this off. We should then be able to help you figure it out

>>edit

Are you using an IDE to develop your code? If so what happens when you run the code there? Also do you have a main method in the class you are running?

Thanks
