Dear forumites, I have encounterd a (probably beginner's) problem starting splitting of osm maps. On starting split of an unzipped map (e.g.: luxembourg-latest.osm as a small example) I recieve the following error report: -------------- Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: crosby/binary/file/BlockReaderAdapter at uk.me.parabola.splitter.Main.<init>(Main.java:58) at uk.me.parabola.splitter.Main.main(Main.java:77) Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: crosby.binary.file.BlockReaderAdapter at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:381) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:424) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:331) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:357) ... 2 more -------------- The run was started with command (as suggested on the web page):: -------------- $<path-to-javadownload>/java -Xmx2000M -jar splitter.jar luxembourg.osm -------------- I have the following hardware/OS combination: a Desktop with 64bit-AMD Processor (relatively fast), 2* 1TB disk and 8G RAM running OpenSUSE Leap 42.2 (relatively well updated) Oracle java 8u121 (for linux-x64) splitter r580 I am no idea of java - my tip would be some error on my side setting things up. Can anyone give me info leading to correction of the error? kind regards philip -- Dr. Philip Dellafera Weinbergblick 9 79395 Neuenburg am Rhein Tel.: +49 (0)7635 827 4687 email: pd8554mb01@t-online.de
