Getting error when importing json jar in my java file in linux

This is my java code

import org.json.JSONArray;
import org.json.JSONException;
import org.json.JSONObject;

public class PlutoMake {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws JSONException {

    }
}

and I compile it with this and it compiles without error

javac PlutoMake.java -cp java-json.jar

Now I copied this project from eclipse from windows, and using that jar it worked fine. I could access all the json functions. But here on linux, when I run it, I get

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/json/JSONException
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.json.JSONException
        at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:217)
        at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
        at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:205)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:323)
        at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:294)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:268)

If I remove the throws JSONException then I can run it. So for some reason I can import the jar but I can't access any of its functions/exceptions without crashing my program...

Jar file is from the answer from this link Importing JSON into an Eclipse project

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks

Add the jar file to the runtime classpath

java -cp java-json.jar:. PlutoMake
