Cannot execute Java program: UnsupportedClassVersionError
- by Ricko Devian
I have installed JDK 6, but I can't execute a Java program.
For example, I have made test.java. I compile it with javac tes.java and there's no error when I compile it, but when I want to execute that program it always displays an error. I execute the Java program with java tes.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: tes : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0

Could not find the main class: tes. Program will exit.
My javac version is 1.7.0, my java version is 1.6.0.
Here is my tes.java code:
class tes{
public static void main(String[]args){
System.out.println("hello");
}
}
