CodingForums.com - Resolved simple java issue: java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main (it's a LIE!)

I have been writing in Java for a few months now; however, I still consider myself fairly new to it because all of my experience in Java has been writing Beans. I have reached the point in developing the project that I am on where I have to write a small and simple Java program in order to try to debug a portion of the Bean that I'm working on. I can't do this from within a Bean because I need to rely on console debugging output.

I thought that I would be able to throw this together relatively quickly, but I can't get this to run due to an error of:
dgetsman@linuxdamon:~/src/java$ java -cp . Main
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main
at this point.

The code is simple and I am fairly confident that it is fine except for main() not being found. I would appreciate any assistance, comments, or pointers to relevant material about this issue. Here is the code:

Code:

import java.util.Date;

import java.sql.*;



public class Main {

        private static final String dbdriver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";

        private static final String dburl="jdbc:mysql://localhost/amitimesheets";

        private static final String dbuser="root";

        private static final String dbpw="nevahgonnagetit";



        private java.util.Date startDate, endDate;

        private int month, year, patient, location;



        public Main() {

        }



        public void main(String[] args) {

          //set everything here to avoid having to mess with user I/O at this

          //point

          month = 7; year = 2008; patient = 10047; location = 1024;

          startDate = new java.util.Date(year, month, 1, 0, 0, 0);

          endDate = new java.util.Date(year, month, 30, 23, 59, 59);



          System.out.println("\n\nmonth: " + month + "\nyear: " + year + "\n");

          System.out.println("\n\nstartDate: " + startDate + "\nendDate: " +

                endDate + "\n");



          try {

                Class.forName(dbdriver);

                Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(dburl, dbuser, dbpw);



                String sql = "SELECT id,starttime,endtime FROM punches WHERE" +

                  " pateitn = ? AND location = ? AND deleted = 0 AND " +

                  "starttime >= ? AND starttime <= ?";



                System.out.println("\n\nsql: " + sql + "\n");



                PreparedStatement stmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);

                stmt.setInt(1, patient);

                stmt.setInt(2, location);

                stmt.setDate(3, new java.sql.Date(startDate.getTime()));

                stmt.setDate(4, new java.sql.Date(endDate.getTime()));



                System.out.println("\n\nstmt: " + stmt + "\n");



                ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery();

                //let's see what we've got in there



                System.out.println("\n\n" + rs + "\n");

          } catch (Exception exception) {

                System.out.println("\n\nGot an error:\n\t" + exception +

                  "\n");

          }

        }

}

Thanks in advance!
