Why I get error ClassNotFoundException: com.amazonaws.auth.AWSCredentialsProvide?

Question

I have installed AWS toolkit for java and then connected it to the project in the build path, and now I'm trying to upload file to S3

File fileOfImages = new File("/sdcard/Save Image Tutorial");

AmazonS3 s3client = new AmazonS3Client(new ProfileCredentialsProvider());        

s3client.putObject(new PutObjectRequest("rosh-haayin-images", "images",fileOfImages)); 

But it fails and I'm getting the below error:

ClassNotFoundException: com.amazonaws.auth.AWSCredentialsProvider

Can someone help me with the solution?

I think you are missing aws-java-sdk-1.10.x.jar in the project build path, so get it and then verify that project refers Java Build path to the jar.

$ jar tvf /home/xxx/aws-java-sdk/1.10.52/lib/aws-java-sdk-1.10.52.jar |grep AWSCredentialsProvider
