Kotlin cannot import packages

I'm using kotlin on command line and I'm getting import errors error: unresolved reference: ConnectionHandler

Following is my directory tree:

$ tree .
.                         
├── LICENSE               
├── main.jar              
├── main.kt               
└── server                
    ├── ConnectionHandler.class                      
    ├── ConnectionHandler.kt                         
    ├── HttpRequest.class 
    └── HttpRequest.kt    

1 directory, 7 files

When I run kotlinc main.kt -include-runtime -d main.jar I get

main.kt:2:8: error: unresolved reference: server     
import server.*

I have declared package server in both of server/ConnectionHandler.kt and server/HttpRequest.kt

Note: The META-INF folder is missing. It is not regenerated either on subsequent compilations.

What am I doing wrong? If it has anything to do with META-INF folder, how can I regenerate it?

You need to include all your source files when using kotlinc (or at least include the compiled classes on the classpath). e.g.

kotlinc main.kt server/ConnectionHandler.kt server/HttpRequest.kt -include-runtime -d main.jar
