Unable to catch exception NoSuchElementException

My try block throws NoSuchElementException but my catch block is unable to proceed.

In my automation suite I get a page with btnOk element sometimes(first login everyday) so I am trying to handle the scenario where if the page comes then click on it and proceed otherwise continue any ways.

Code snippet below:

try {
    WebElement submitbuttonPresence=driver.findElement(By.id("btnOk"));
    submitbuttonPresence.click();
}
catch (NoSuchElementException e) {
    System.out.println(driver.getTitle());
}

There are two NoSuchElementException, one in java.util and one in org.openqa.selenium. To catch WebDriver exceptions you need the second one

import org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException

It seems you catch an incorrect exception. Try code below:

try {
    WebElement submitbuttonPresence=driver.findElement(By.id("btnOk"));
    submitbuttonPresence.click();
}
catch (org.openqa.selenium.NoSuchElementException e) {
    System.out.println(driver.getTitle());
}
