Bit of a stab in the dark this one, but firstly you should make sure you're running the Windows standard version, and not the expert version.  If you are running the expert version, make sure you don't have Java 1.5 installed - it will cause a lot of headaches.

If the standard version doesn't fix it...

It's probably a problem with your CLASSPATH environment variable, or possibly the PATH one.  You can see what they are by opening up the command line in Windows (Start / Run... / cmd).  Then type:

Code:

C:\>echo %CLASSPATH%


If there are strange combinations of quote marks in there, you need to try and fix them.  (Sorry this is so vague, but it's worth a try).  There is an "Advanced" tab in System Properties (right click My Computer, choose Properties) that might help.  On my machine at least, there is an "Environment Variables" button in that tab, and you can edit CLASSPATH and PATH there.

hello TomC,

i tried your suggestion. this is what i got from echoing the CLASSPATH -- "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0_02\lib\ext\QTJava.zip"

i went to look at this path using the explorer... and it looks right. the path is correct.

but when using the Alpha 0069, no such error appears. and my Classes work! funny.

try removing the quotes in the CLASSPATH and changing "Program Files" to "Progra~1".

also, what's you PATH look like? (do the same command prompt thing, but use echo %PATH% instead)

here you go:

C:\Documents and Settings\user>ECHO %PATH%

C:\Program Files\Alias\Maya6.5\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\Sys
tem32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel;"C:\Program Files
\Norton SystemWorks\Norton Ghost\"

my error message points to Files\Norton.

and also did the same for PATH and everything seems to be running smoothly now.

yup, the norton install is screwing things up. remove the quotes around the norton ghost stuff and you should be in better shape.
