Hi Manoj,

~#:info jar

[quote]
u    Updates an existing JAR file by adding files or changing the mani‐
            fest.  For example:

               example% jar uf foo.jar foo.class

            adds the file foo.class to the existing JAR file foo.jar,
and

               example% jar umf foo.jar

            updates foo.jar's manifest with the information in manifest.

       v    Generates verbose output on stderr.

Try adding the "v" switch to see if you can get more information about
the error.  What java version are you on?
