Commandlet issue: looked like a commandlet, but we could not find the class

inside of my Editor Module, I have a commandlet class named as "UmyCommandlet2Commandlet "
Here is the header file contents:

//myCommandlet2Commandlet.h
#pragma once
//#include "pak_4_11_p1Editor.h"
#include "Commandlets/Commandlet.h"
#include "myCommandlet2Commandlet.generated.h"

UCLASS()
class UmyCommandlet2Commandlet : public UCommandlet
{
	GENERATED_UCLASS_BODY()
	//~ Begin UCommandlet Interface
	virtual void CreateCustomEngine(const FString& Params) override;
	virtual int32 Main(const FString& Params) override;
	//~ End UCommandlet Interface
};

I am trying to access it using:

“UE4Editor.exe
J:\UnrealProjects\pak_4_11_p2\pak_4_11_p1.uproject
-run=myCommandlet2”

But I am always getting this error:

[2016.07.04-22.58.53:573][
0]LogInit:Error:
myCommandlet233Commandlet looked like
a commandlet, but we could not find
the class.

If i move same class under my primaryModule then it works fine.

Why under Editor module , ue4 failed to find it?
how to make it find?

UE4Editor.exe “J:\UnrealProjects\pak_4_11_p2\pak_4_11_p1.uproject” -run=myCommandlet2

try with double quotes!!

also you can use UE4Editor-Cmd.exe to exec by prompt in the same shell you opened to type it

It happened to me as well.

I needed to add my module to [YourProjectName].uproject

"Modules": 
[
        {
			"Name": "[YourModuleName]",
			"Type": "Runtime",
			"LoadingPhase": "Default"
		}
 ]

and the same for [YourProjectName].Target.cs

ExtraModuleNames.Add("[YourModuleName]");
