Can't find my MainActivity

Question

I get this error when I attempt to run my mapping app, which is frankly little more than the Google Maps demo program, set to open a map in the Strybing Arboretum.

11-18 19:01:36.890: E/AndroidRuntime(18243): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate activity ComponentInfo{net.stuffilike.strybing/net.stuffilike.strybing.MainActivity}: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: Didn't find class "net.stuffilike.strybing.MainActivity" on path: DexPathList[[zip file "/data/app/net.stuffilike.strybing-1.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/data/app-lib/net.stuffilike.strybing-1, /vendor/lib, /system/lib]]

Is it possible that I have somehow put it in an inaccessible location? I note this

net.stuffilike.strybing/net.stuffilike.strybing.MainActivity

path nomenclature, and wonder about it. As far as I can tell there is nothing at all special about this little program except the inclusion of the google-play-services_lib, which I haven't ever used before.

Has anyone had and solved this problem?

Package line from MainActivity:

package net.stuffilike.strybing;

You need to update your manifest and for your MainActivity set:

android:name="net.stuffilike.strybing.MainActivity"

Of course net.stuffilike.strybing must match the package in which MainActivity resides in.
