Unable to construct javafx.application.Application instance

I'm trying a JavaFX tutorial from the Oracle site [fxml tutorial] (http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/get-started-tutorial/fxml_tutorial.htm).

package fxml;

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

class Main extends Application {

    public Main() {}

    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {
        Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("welcome.fxml"));

        Scene scene = new Scene(root);

        stage.setTitle("FXML UI");
        stage.setScene(scene);
        stage.show();
    }

    public static void main(String args[]) {
        launch(args);
    }

}

And this is the exception that I'm continuously getting. The application doesn't show up on the screen. I did the non-args Main() constructor from another stack overflow answer but it didn't fix it.

class Main extends Application is missing the initial public keyword.

Also public Main() {} is unnecessary.
