Question

While following the tutorial: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/starting-activity.html, and got help form: My First App crashes when pressing a button, I still (after reading the answers to the question) can't figure out how to fix the problem.

My Code: AndroidManifest.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.example.buttonactivity1.app" >

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
        <activity
            android:name="com.example.buttonactivity1.app.MainActivity"
            android:label="@string/app_name" >
            <intent-filter>

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />

In the other question, I saw the "fragment_main.xml" and "activity_display_message.xml" files. Do I need to have them? is that what's causing the problem?

Was it helpful?

Solution

It seems you have got a problem about your Manifest file.

You added com.example.buttonactivity1.DisplayMessageActivity but code try to run different path 

android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.example.buttonactivity1.app/com.example.buttonactivity1.app.DisplayMessageActivity}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

OTHER TIPS

Caused by: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: Unable to find explicit activity class {com.example.buttonactivity1.app/com.example.buttonactivity1.app.DisplayMessageActivity}; have you declared this activity in your AndroidManifest.xml?

You failed to add DisplayMessageActivity to your manifest in an <activity> element.
