Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFou

I don't seem to be able to make my java runnable.

I keep getting java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError error. I did make it successfully run (but failed to find map file) few times, but it suddenly stopped working again.

I have manfest file with text

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Main-Class: Main.RolfKye
Class-Path: lib/jig-1.7.5.jar

But it does not work, other than previously mentioned brief times.

I have couple issues…

How do I access file that was included inside jar? I want to include map file inside jar file and be able to run it.

How do I solve Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: jig/engine/hli/StaticScreenGame error when I try to run it now?

For people having similiar issues but with properly configured manfest...

Add a newline. Make sure manfest file ends with line with nothing but newline.

I hate voodoo stuff like that.

I still can't make my program find its map data file but in least it runs.
