IntelliJ中简单的Hello World上的ClassNotFoundException

Question

I am using IntelliJ, and get a ClassNotFoundException, even when doing a simple Hello World program. After googling and looking at how to add directory to classpath in an application run profile in intellij idea? , I tried changing my dependencies to the JDK folder (/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_10.jdk), and to no avail.

I have also tried re-installing the JDK and re-installing IntelliJ, both to no avail, and I can run programs in NetBeans without issue. What's going on? Is this some strange bug with IntelliJ?

Code:

public class AppMain {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

Error:

Answer 1

I've found out what sorted it. It was a bug with my import settings, deleting my preferences (ie going to ~/Library/Preferences and doing rm -r IdeaIC13) sorted this issue out. Hopefully that's helpful to anyone else coming across this issue.
