Could not find the main class. Program will exit. [message #262627]

Hello,

I've created a jar file from my project and when I double-click on it, it
gives this error.
The error goes away when I remove all the try-catch statements from the
code. I keep all my code, just remove the try statement and the catch
block.

I'm catching the Exception as in,

try
{
..some code...

}
catch (Exception e)
{

}

What is the reason ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much,

Darius.

Where is your try/catch located? In Main?

The try-catch blocks are in public methods in the class that contains
main, but none are in main
