Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException:The path to the driver executable must be set by the : system property

I'm facing java.lang.IllegalStateException executing my code.
Code trials:
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class seleniumintroduction {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\ATIF\\OneDrive\\Desktop\\Selenium Course\\chromedriver_win32.exe");
WebDriver driver=new ChromeDriver();
}
}
Error I'm seeing:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: The driver executable must exist: C:\Users\ATIF\OneDrive\Desktop\Selenium Course\chromedriver_win32.exe

Though the downloaded zip file name is chromedriver_win32.zip, but once you extract the ChromeDriver it's chromedriver.exe
So you need to change the line:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\ATIF\\OneDrive\\Desktop\\Selenium Course\\chromedriver_win32.exe");
as
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","C:\\Users\\ATIF\\OneDrive\\Desktop\\Selenium Course\\chromedriver.exe");

Could not able to launch chrome browser using the selenium webdriver

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class launch {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("https://www.google.com/");
}
}
Error:
Could not find or load main class org.openqa.grid.selenium.GridLauncherV3

In the Launch class you are directly creating the object of ChromeDriver class without giving the chrome driver path.
So, before creating the ChromeDriver object you need to add:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","path of chromedriver.exe file");
If you have downloaded the chrome driver exe file then you need to pass that path.
After this create the object of ChromeDriver class.

You need to set the system property webdriver.chrome.driver as follows:
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", '/path/to/chromedriver');
Additionally, instead of using the ChromeDriver use the WebDriver interface as follows:
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

I am getting the next error with this code:
package main;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;
public class main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver("https://www.google.co.il/");
}
}
Error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
WebDriver cannot be resolved to a type
ChromeDriver cannot be resolved to a type
at class6_v2/main.main.main(main.java:11)
i have added the Jars of selenium to the build path:
enter image description here
and checked that the web driver is the right version of chrome and in the class files
what am i doing wrong?

You need to set up System Property first or set up your chromedriver.exe in to the environment path.
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", path to your chromedriver.exe)
then you declare chrome driver and go to url
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get(your url);

Error while executing Selenium script in Eclipse IDE

I am getting the below error for the below script. I have all the jar files added to the library.
============================================================
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: Unresolved compilation problems:
WebDriver cannot be resolved to a type
FirefoxDriver cannot be resolved to a type
at webdriver/Demo.Sample.main(Sample.java:11)
=============================================================
package Demo;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class Sample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
System.out.println("hello");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com");
}
}

Seems like, you have imported the wrong jar files. Download the selenium-server-standalone-2.53.1.jar file from https://selenium-release.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=2.53/ and import it into an eclipse and remove other jar files.
Since you are trying to automate Firefox using Selenium WebDriver, you need to download Firefox executable binary file as well. Based on your browser version, you can get gecko driver from https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/
And add the below line in your code before the driver initialization and provide absolute path of Firefox executable binary file with name and extention :
System.setProperty("webdriver.firefox.driver", "pathToGeckoBinaryExecutable");
Below is your modified code :
package Demo;
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
public class Sample {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.setProperty("webdriver.firefox.driver", "pathToGeckoBinaryExecutable\\geckodriver.exe"); // Provide your system path to the gecko driver with name and extension here
System.out.println("hello");
WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
driver.get("http://www.google.com");
}
}
I hope it helps...

Import these two lines :
import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
Assuming all pre-requisites have already been taken care.

You can use use selenium-java.x.jar in your classpath.
Compile and run...
