NoClassDefFoundError：使用 apache poi 写入 excel 文件时出现 UnsupportedFileFormatException

Question

I am trying to write to an excel(.xlsx) file using Apache poi, I included the apache poi dependencies in my pom.xml file. But I am getting the following exception in execution.

The code and pom.xml is specified as follows.

I am getting the exception in the following line.

Answer 1

I think You'r missing some classes "UnsupportedFileFormatException"

try to change the poi versions to the same and dont use the 3.11-beta2

You can use both in version 3.12 http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.poi

Answer 2

I tried your code using the Jar Libs and not maven (see the images of project) and it worked fine. So like Athi said, you are missing some libs or the type of your file is not a xlsx.

PS: I just changed this line of code from

 File myFile = new File("/home/sabra/workspace/test/src/main/resources/test.xlsx");

to

File myFile = new File("test.xlsx");
