Getting illegal start of type compilation error

My code for infix to postfix transformation problem is as follows

package CodeChef;

import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.Stack;

/**

public class PostFixConverter {

    public static void main(String args[]){

        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
        int noOfTestCases = Integer.parseInt(scanner.nextLine());
        for(int i=0;i<noOfTestCases;i++){
            printPostFix(scanner.nextLine());
        }

    }

    public static void printPostFix(String str){
        Stack<Character> stack = new Stack<>();
        for(int i=0;i<str.length();i++){
            char c = str.charAt(i);
            if(Character.isLetter(c)){
                System.out.print(c);
            }
            else if(c == '('){
                continue;
            }
            else if(c == ')'){
                System.out.print(stack.pop());
            }
            else{
                stack.push(c);
            }
        }
        System.out.println();
    }
}

Compiles and runs fine on my machine. But on code chef it give me following compile time error

Main.java:22: illegal start of type Stack stack = new Stack<>(); ^ 1 error

Can someone point out what exactly the problem is?
