I've been trying to set up mcp with forge for the first time. I've done numerous fresh downloads and installs. Every time I run it in eclipse it gives me this fatal error. I found the file tis looking for but I'm not sure where its supposed to be. I'm using build 341.

Make sure you have EVERY file in the forge zip placed into the minecraft.jar.

I havent been puting any files in the jar directly. ive been running the install.cmd. I thought that was all I had to do. I extract the mcp zip into a folder named mcp. then I put my minecraft bin and resources folders from .minecraft in the jars folder. I add the server jar into the jars folder. then I extract the forge zip which puts a folder named forge in between the eclipse and jars folder. I then run the install.cmd in the forge folder. after that has finished I follow this tutorial for setting up mcp in net beans http://mcp.ocean-labs.de/index.php/Setting_up_NetBeans. once I've done that I press run. It gives me that error then I start messing with stuff, moving files around, creating packages, etc... eventually once I feel like I've screwed up my mcp forge installation beyond repair, I repeat from step 1 to give my self a fresh install. After trying this for a while I've decided to ask for help.

I've narrowed down the problem to a mistake that's happening during net beans set up. When I use the startclient.bat in mcp it runs fine.

done. downloaded the file here and opened it in net beans. worked perfectly. http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/NetBeans
