Can you tell me more about the environment you are running this in? The example runs just fine on my system.

Are you using the new examples already (see [Rework of Deeplearning4J Examples](https://community.konduit.ai/t/rework-of-deeplearning4j-examples/619))? Given that you reference an old example in [Could not find class for TF Ops: ResourceGather](https://community.konduit.ai/t/could-not-find-class-for-tf-ops-resourcegather/641), your problem might stem from something that we’ve fixed already.
