Michael,
Thank you for sending the code, it helped to clarify things. Here's my take on this so far:
If I understand correctly, you just re-compiled the code, and this started to fail.
Well, it seems to me that your original java program LastTwoST.java was changed at one point between this new compilation and the previous compilation. That is, that your were running a java class which source code was modified after it got compiled.
Please check the change date of the file LastTwoST.java. My hypothesis here is that somebody modified the source code, but didn't compile it, so maybe you were running this for months or years, without suspecting that the source code was modified. Apparently, when you re-compiled, you didn't re-compile the original source code, but some modified source code.
Why do I think this? Because the error thrown says that the proper version of the method writeDetailRows was not found, however, you are not calling that method directly, you are calling writeHeader. Apparently writeHeader is calling (directly or undirectly) writeDetailRows. Since both writeHeader and writeDetailRows are in the same source file, there is no chance that the problem is the class path. So maybe the call to writeDetailRows has an error.
Please let me know if that makes sense.
Luis

It's interesting that your class path is
Work with Environment Vars (*JOB)
.:/JAVA:/JAVA/TOOLS:/JAVA/REPORTS:/JAVA/jt400.jar:
But your class is at "java/Reports"
I'm not sure if this will make a difference, but perhaps your JVM is now
case sensitive. That would mean that it's trying to find "/JAVA/REPORTS"
instead of "/java/Reports".
Could you please post the command line that runs your java program? If
it's a short CL, you could post it here, also.
Luis

writeDetailRows is in the LastTwoST.class that is in the IFS here:
java/Reports
The only thing I'm aware that has changed recently was me recompiling a
SendMailN.class in the IFS java folder.

Maybe something changed and you were not aware of it (I'm just saying).
Do you know where is this method (writeDetailRows)? I mean, in what class?
Where is the class in the IFS?

If nothing has changed with the Java I would wager to guess it has to do
with the JVM already being started up. Note that you can only have one
JVM
started per job and after it is started the classpath can't be modified.
That means that if a user produced an email with JavaMail (for instance)
and
then tried to run your reports Java stuff, the setting of the classpath
the
second time around wouldn't actually do anything because the JVM was
already
started in that job.
In the process that has started to not work, try signing off and back on
to
see if that fixes it.
Some ways to work around this would be to submit a job to batch that
listens
on a data queue and processes all of the requests for Java like that, the
other approach would be to set your classpath with ALL .jar files
necessary
for any Java process.
HTH,

Subject: Another "java.lang.NoSuchMethodError" question
I've seen a lot of posts about this, but I still can't make heads or tails
of it. I have a couple of programs that started throwing these exceptions
lately. I "don't think anything has changed" with these programs or this
class, but I did have a friend walk me through re-compiling a different
class a few weeks ago. I have a feeling it's more than a coincidence.
Here's what I am seeing:
