Hello SAS Community,

We want to connect to metadata server with java interface and we follow the steps in

SAS® 9.4 Open Metadata Interface: Reference and Usage, Third Edition

We try the sample program from this link of documentation

http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/omaref/59983/HTML/default/viewer.htm#a003297220.htm

and it throws this Exception :

 

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sas/util/ChainedExceptionInterface at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:760) at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:142) at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(URLClassLoader.java:467) at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$100(URLClassLoader.java:73) at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:368) at java.net.URLClassLoad

This seems like it might be a classpath problem or a missing jar file in your dev environment.  I don't think there's enough info in your message here to diagnose.

 

Verify that you have all of the necessary Jar files in your path per these requirements.

 

And that you're using the most recent version of the sample.
