Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:

Question

I recently installed intellij IDEA 14.0 and to make sure everything was working I created a simple Hello World program. I do not understand why the output is not correct and why I am getting this error. If someone could please help that would be great.

This is the program:

public class Hello {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println("Hello World!");
  }
}

This is the error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Hello
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:372)
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:361)

at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method)
at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:260)
at com.intellij.rt.execution.application.AppMain.main(AppMain.java:116)

Isn't that a duplicate of stackoverflow.com/questions/16857849/… ? — Gabriel

The reason you're getting this error is because you didn't save the class into a file called Hello.java (case-sensitive!)

It usually happens with IntelliJ.

I solved it deleting all modules and only leaving which have more hierarchy

The other modules(like main or test) are already part of product
