Seems the jar's manifest isn't in the META-INF dir?

[aglover]

curl -O http://repo.joist.ws/com/bizo/fakesdb-standalone_2.9.1/2.6.1/fakesdb-standalone_2.9.1-2.6.1.jar
Then
java -jar fakesdb-standalone_2.9.1-2.6.1.jar
And I get:
Error: Invalid or corrupt jarfile fakesdb-standalone_2.9.1-2.6.1.jar

Yet I can jar tf the file and I see .class files.
Looking in the META-INF dir and I don't see a manifest.mf but I see it in the parent dir.

I un-jar'ed the project, then re-jar'ed specifying the m flag, reran the java -jar command and it works.

I had the same issue. Based on the comment above, here's what I did:

$ mkdir fakesdb
$ cd fakesdb
$ curl -O http://repo.joist.ws/com/bizo/fakesdb-standalone_2.9.1/2.6.1/fakesdb-standalone_2.9.1-2.6.1.jar
$ unzip fakesdb-standalone_2.9.1-2.6.1.jar
$ jar cfm fakesdb.jar manifest.mf .
$ java -jar fakesdb.jar
