How to jlink when my own module is not found?

I have a directory structure like this:

TestJlink

-src

--module-info.java

--com

---company

----TestJLink

-----TestJLink.java

I run this jlink --module-path src --add-modules com.company.TestJLink --output outputJRE

I get Error: Module com.company.TestJlink not found

The contents of my module-info.java is this:

module com.company.TestJlink {
        
  requires java.desktop;
    
  requires com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc;
        
  requires java.sql;
        
  requires sshj;
    
}

My TestJLink.java contains this

package com.company.TestJLink;
imports ...
public class TestJLink {
    TestJlink(){}
...
}

I am using java 11

I am able to build it using this: java -p C:\Users\Administrator...\target\classes;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\com\microsoft\sqlserver\mssql-jdbc\8.4.1.jre11\mssql-jdbc-8.4.1.jre11.jar;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\com\hierynomus\sshj\0.27.0\sshj-0.27.0.jar;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\org\bouncycastle\bcprov-jdk15on\1.60\bcprov-jdk15on-1.60.jar;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\org\bouncycastle\bcpkix-jdk15on\1.60\bcpkix-jdk15on-1.60.jar;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\com\jcraft\jzlib\1.1.3\jzlib-1.1.3.jar;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\net\i2p\crypto\eddsa\0.2.0\eddsa-0.2.0.jar;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\org\slf4j\slf4j-api\1.7.5\slf4j-api-1.7.5.jar;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\org\slf4j\slf4j-log4j12\1.7.5\slf4j-log4j12-1.7.5.jar;C:\Users\Administrator.m2\repository\log4j\log4j\1.2.17\log4j-1.2.17.jar -m com.company.TestJLink/com.company.TestJLink.TestJLink

solved it by first doing javac which I was also having problems with. The solution I found was just to add this to the end of the javac src\module-info.java src\com\company\TestJLink\TestJLink.java

After it was compiled, I was able to jlink it. The problem I had earlier with jlinking it was I was referencing the src, not the compiled .class files.

jlink --module-path --output testjre --add-modules com.company.TestJLink -p ... any other dependencies from maven jars etc.

Now I am getting this error, Error: automatic module cannot be used with jlink. This should be fun, but it has to do with my maven dependencies and not the actual example.
