Here is my code :

   public String readGoogle(String keyword, int page) {
        HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient();  

        // Create a method instance
        keyword = keyword.trim();
        keyword = keyword.replaceAll(" ", "+");

        String url = "http://www.google.com/search?q="+keyword+"&start="+page+"&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=";
        String responseBody = "";
        HttpGet method = new HttpGet(url);  

        //Provide custom retry handler is necessary  
        //:OC:method.getParams().setParameter(HttpConnectionParams.RETRY_HANDLER, new DefaultHttpRequestRetryHandler(3, false));  


        try{  
        //execute the method  


            System.out.println("executing request " + method.getURI());  

            // Create a response handler  
            ResponseHandler responseHandler = new BasicResponseHandler();  
            responseBody = client.execute(method, responseHandler);  
            System.out.println("----------------------------------------");  
            System.out.println(responseBody);  
            System.out.println("----------------------------------------");  



            } catch (HTTPException e) {  

                    System.err.println("Fatal protocol violation: " + e.getMessage());  
                    e.printStackTrace();  

                } catch (IOException e) {  

                    System.err.println("Fatal transport error: " + e.getMessage());  
                    e.printStackTrace();  
                } finally {  

                    //release the connection  
              method.releaseConnection();  

        }
        return responseBody;

    }

ClassNotFoundException can only mean that the specified class is not on your classpath. Check again that all the right jars are on your classpath. — Sotirios Delimanolis

Add Http core jar to your build path, find the required jar from this url. http://www.java2s.com/Code/Jar/h/Downloadhttpcorejar.htm

deploy the jar and then compile, your error will be resolved.

Whilst this may theoretically answer the question, it would be preferable to include the essential parts of the answer here, and provide the link for reference.

Without your classpath configuration and knowledge about the web server you are deploying your application to, it is not easy to help but from the look of things, it seems you are missing the HttpCore jar in your deployment environment.

The missing class is found in that jar.
