[rules-users] beginner needs help

[Senlin Liang]

Hi all,

I just started using Drools. I tried to run some example, but they all give
me errors. Is there any simple instructions for beginners?

Any help is appreciated.

I tried to run examples in
drools-examples/drools-examples-drl/src/main/java/org/drools/examples


But got some exceptions such as:
Exception in thread "main" org.drools.RuntimeDroolsException: Unable to load
