Solution 1

Did you try running it from the Command prompt using

java -jar filename.jar

And if you want to use this application you have developed in a mobile then the way you are running it is wrong. MIDP application neither contains main class nor can can be run on Java SE.

Take a look at this link. This might help.

Thank you for replying. Im developing this application to run it on mobile, and you mean i cant test it by double clicking it and need to send to mobile to test it? Sorry for lack of knowledge, im new to this

Yes, you cann't run it like that.
It can be tested on a default emulator or Java ME SDK or by some device by installing it. Some device allow you to install jar file directly, for some you need to install OTA server and use JAD/JAR files to get the app up and running.
