Error launching Luke(Java App) from WinXP

Question

I downloaded luke-1.0.1.jar (Luke 1.0.1 binary without any dependencies) from http://code.google.com/p/luke/downloads/list.

And I have WinXP, with latest Java 6 downloaded from Oracle/Sun web site.

I run the command line: "java -jar luke-1.0.1.jar" and try to launch Luke, but I got following error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/lucene/analysis/Analyzer
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.lucene.analysis.Analyzer
        at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source)
        at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)

        at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
Could not find the main class: org.getopt.luke.Luke. Program will exit.

Any clue, what shall I do? I totally have no knowledge of Java.

Thanks

So Java complains that it cant find a dependency. Which is little surprise since you downloaded a binary without dependencies.

Download the binary with all the dependencies (try the "featured" one) and you should be good.

I think the version I downloaded is featured one. – hardywang Mar 12 '11 at 01:37
Judging from your description "Luke 1.0.1 binary without any dependencies" it's not the one – iluxa Mar 12 '11 at 01:40
All I can see from download page is either source code or binary. Fairly clearly on the page. I also downloaded lucene jar file, how can I make them run together? – hardywang Mar 12 '11 at 01:46
download the "self-contained..." thing. Third one in the list. This one: "lukeall-1.0.1.jar Release 1.0.1 self-contained executable JAR with plugins (uses Lucene 3.0.1) Featured" – iluxa Mar 12 '11 at 01:48

Luke is a tool for examining lucene indices. You need to combine it with Lucene. You can either download Lucene and add appropriare JAR files to the classpath, or download a fatter Luke binary that includes Lucene.

I copied Lucene jar file inside same folder of luke jar file, and run command "java -cp C:\Temp\Lucene\ -jar luke-1.0.1.jar", the same error. – hardywang Mar 12 '11 at 01:48
