Make sure that your code contains a valid main function as the jar file needs this as an entry point. IDEs such as netbeans sometimes make it possible to run code without an main function for faster debug purposes, but starting the jar will then not work.

public class Main {
    // your function definitions here
    
    public static void main(String[] args){
            // Your function calls here
    }
}
