I have fixed it!
My problem was due to incompatible versions of the components of the slf4j library.
The project used the following:
slf4j-api-1.5.2.jar
slf4j-log4j12-1.5.3.jar
but they aren't compatible.

slf4j-api-1.5.2.jar was replaced by slf4j-api-1.5.3.jar and now it works!

cool nice work. i replaced slf4j-api-1.4.2 with slf4j-api-1.5.3 and now it works. do you know if it matters if i use slf4j-simple or slf4j-log4j12?

I had this error
java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: name
until I matched all of my libraries for slf4j to the latest release the
.name field was added in a new (recent) superclass and the java.lang error
is that there really isn't such a field in the class defintion.

I'd check the mix and match of version of all of the slf4j and any other sets
of libraries because you have a .class that actually says this.name and
there isn't such a field in the classes you have brought together.

[ew0kian]

right, i made sure those two have the same version number and it works fine now

I am getting the exact same error.

I see I'm not the only one to not see a reply before replying amd not only one
to accidently cobble together the wrong library sets.
My (phill) and ew0kian's solution was to get all of the org.slf4j libraries aligned to the same (latest) version and the problem went away because the name field was recently added, so this erros comes up if you mix more recent versions
with slightly older versions.

Hi, can some1 help me get this file [slf4j-api-1.5.3.jar] please ... googled with no success

[al0]

And on the slf4j site (http://www.slf4j.org)?

I was using slf4j-log4j12-1.5.3.jar because I downloaded it manually from the slf4j site but the dependency states slf4j-1.5.2. Once I got the 1.5.2 the NoSuchFieldError was gone.

[al0]

Which dependency do you mean?
And I really doubt that any dependecy states mix of 1.5.2 and 1.5.3
