I am trying to run selenium-standalone-server 2.47.1.jar through command prompt.
But I am facing this error.

Why am I getting this error?
I have JDK installed already(since I need to run netbeans).
Is there anything I am missing?
Or You can also check with http://localhost:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=getLogMessages If serveris runnning then it will show 'ok' in browser.
If you will be only using the WebDriver API you do not need the Selenium-Server. If your browser and tests will all run on the same machine, and your tests only use the WebDriver API, then you do not need to run the Selenium-Server; WebDriver will run the browser directly.
java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError
happens because the code was compiled with a higher version of Java than the one you're running it.
Version 51.0 of a class file corresponds to java 7
J2SE 8 = 52,
J2SE 7 = 51,
J2SE 6.0 = 50,
J2SE 5.0 = 49,
JDK 1.4 = 48,
JDK 1.3 = 47,
JDK 1.2 = 46,
JDK 1.1 = 45
You need to upgrade your JDK from Java 6 to Java 7 or higher.
Just download the last JDK from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html
It helps me resolve the problem on my mac the problem was Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/openqa/grid/selenium/GridLauncher : Unsupported major.minor version 51.0
