RMI Connection error Client Side

I am getting an error when attempting to connect to an RMI service:

I am executing the client code using:

java -Djava.security.manager -Djava.security.policy=path\to\policy.all -jar "path\to\jarfile" "localhost:2020"

The code I am using is:

public class PowerServiceClient
{
    public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception
    {

         System.setSecurityManager
            (new RMISecurityManager());

         // Call registry for PowerService
         PowerService service = (PowerService) Naming.lookup
            ("rmi://localhost:2020/PowerService");

         DataInputStream din = new
             DataInputStream (System.in);

    }
}

The error I am receiving is:

    Exception in thread "main" java.rmi.UnmarshalException: 
    error unmarshalling return; nested exception is:

    java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: rmiservice.PowerService

Does anyone know what the problem is here?

The Registry needs access to your remote interface class and its dependencies on its classpath. There are three solutions to that. In order of ease:

1. Start the Registry inside your server JVM, with LocateRegistry.createRegistry()
2. Start the rmiregistry process with a -D-Jclasspath= argument
3. Use the codebase feature.
