Hi guys, what might be the cause of this exception, the reason why I did not make my methods static is because I'm running it on putty.

Here is my error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main

Aren't you going to tell us where is the error?
And probably you are using a method that doesn't exist

public void main(String[] args) throws Exception {}

HAVE TO BE

public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {}

PS: Throwing exception directly from main method is bad thing to do.
PS2: In the future please use code tags to post any code [code]YOUR CODE HERE[/code]
