When trying to create a jar file using the following command

jar -cvfm manifest.txt BeatBox.jar bin

I'm getting the following error:

java.io.FileNotFoundException: BeatBox.jar (The system cannot find the file specified)
at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method)
at java.io.FileInputStream.(init)(FileInputStream.java:138)
at java.io.FileInputStream.(init)(FileInputStream.java:97)
at sun.tools.jar.Main.run(Main.java:171)
at sun.tools.jar.Main.main(Main.java:1177)

This feels like a school-boy error but I can't seem to figure out the problem. Any help would be very much appreciated

Hello!

I've just had this exact issue for about 2 hours. I feel incredibly stupid.

It's cvmf, not cvfm. For some reason I just naturally typed it wrong.

I realise this is an old post but I thought I might as well share!
