Hello: I have come accross an interesting issue with Java. Let's say I fashion a simple Hello World app, and entitle it hello.java The code would be: class hello { public void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello World!"); } } Then, I compile the code as a regular user, with javac hello.java Here's the odd part: I type java hello, and I get unable to find main class hello But, if I run sudo java bhello, it works fine. What is the solution to not having to run Java software as sudo?
It is not good Java to have a main() not be public static void main(). If it works when you run sudo(8), then all the better for you, but you really need your class to be `public` as well.
Rewrite your code to be:
public class hello { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello World!"); } }
I still have the same issue; I still need to run the code with sudo.
