Add the jar(Commons-codec.jar) file needed for this org.apache.commons.codec.DecoderException

Download it from here and put it in classpath

Please make sure that org-apache-commons-codec.jar is present on your class-path. You can download this commons-codec jar file from apache website.
This jar file contains org/apache/commons/codec/DecoderException class, and hence add it to the classpath must resolve your problem.

NoClassDefFoundError in Java comes when Java Virtual Machine is not able to find a particular class at runtime which was available during compile time. For example if we have a method call from a class or accessing any static member of a Class and that class is not available during run-time then JVM will throw NoClassDefFoundError.
