Fragment not starting other Fragment in Android

Question

I have a Login Fragment when the user first time comes to my application i used to take it's user name and password and save that it into SharedPref.So that next time he don't need to enter again the user name and password.

But what is happening it is not showing any thing it is just showing a Blank activity even the layout design it is not showing.

My Login FragmentActivity Code

public class Login extends FragmentActivity {
    public static String url = "";
    public static ProgressDialog progressDialog;
    EditText username, password;
    TextView error;
    ImageView ok;
    static String AppResponse = null;
    ProgressDialog pd;
    private Fragment dashboardFragment;
    View rootView = null;

    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        SharedPreferences shared = getSharedPreferences("shared", MODE_PRIVATE);
        dashboardFragment = new DashBoardFragment();
        if (shared.contains("username") && shared.contains("password")) {

            startingActivity();
        } else {
            progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
            progressDialog.setMessage("Please Wait Validating .!!!");
            progressDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
            progressDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.THEME_HOLO_DARK);
            progressDialog.setCancelable(false);
            rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_login, container,
                    false);
            username = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.textUserName);
            password = (EditText) rootView.findViewById(R.id.textPassword);
            ok = (ImageView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.btn_login);
            error = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.error_view);
            pd = new ProgressDialog(this);
            pd.setMessage("Logging In");
            ok.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                @Override
                public void onClick(View v) {
                    String pass = password.getText().toString();
                    String userId = username.getText().toString();
                    boolean isConnected = isNetworkConnected(Login.this);
                    Log.d("Network Status", "Status is " + isConnected);
                    if (userId.equals("") || pass.equals("")) {
                        error.setText("Please provide UserName and Password...!!!!!");
                    } else {
                        if (isConnected) {
                            postHttpRequest(userId, pass, error);
                        } else {
                            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                                    "No Network Connection", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
                                    .show();
                        }
                    }
                }
            });
        }
        return rootView;
    }

StartActivity

public void startingActivity() {
        FragmentTransaction fragTran = getSupportFragmentManager()
                .beginTransaction();
        fragTran.replace(R.id.content_frame, dashboardFragment);
        fragTran.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_OPEN);
        fragTran.addToBackStack(null);
        fragTran.commit();
    }

DashBoardFragment

public class DashBoardFragment extends Fragment {
    GridView gridView;
    static final String[] DASHBOARD_LINKS = new String[] { };
    private Fragment approvalStatusFragment;
    private Fragment pendingApprovalsFragment;
    private Fragment flghtBookingFragment;

            Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_dash_board,
                container, false);
        gridView = (GridView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.my_grid_view);
        gridView.setAdapter(new ImageAdapter(getActivity(), DASHBOARD_LINKS));

        approvalStatusFragment = new ApprovalStatus();
        pendingApprovalsFragment = new PendingApprovals();
        flghtBookingFragment = new FlightBooking();

        final FragmentTransaction fragTran = getFragmentManager()
                .beginTransaction();

        gridView.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> arg0, View v, int arg2,
                    long arg3) {

                    fragTran.replace(R.id.content_frame, pendingApprovalsFragment);
                    fragTran.setTransition(FragmentTransaction.TRANSIT_FRAGMENT_OPEN);

Answer 1

Your class should be like this (FragmentActivity does not have OnCreateView method it have OnCreate Method) so just change method OnCrateView to OnCreate.

public class Login extends FragmentActivity {
        public static String url = "";
        public static ProgressDialog progressDialog;
        EditText username, password;
        TextView error;
        ImageView ok;
        static String AppResponse = null;
        ProgressDialog pd;
        private Fragment dashboardFragment;
        View rootView = null;
        @Override
        protected Void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

            SharedPreferences shared = getSharedPreferences("shared", MODE_PRIVATE);
            dashboardFragment = new DashBoardFragment();
            if (shared.contains("username") && shared.contains("password")) {

                startingActivity();
            } else {
                progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(this);
                progressDialog.setMessage("Please Wait Validating .!!!");
                progressDialog.setIndeterminate(false);
                progressDialog.setProgressStyle(ProgressDialog.THEME_HOLO_DARK);
                progressDialog.setCancelable(false);
                setContentView(R.layout.activity_login);

                username = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.textUserName);
                password = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.textPassword);
                ok = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.btn_login);
                error = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.error_view);
                pd = new ProgressDialog(this);
                pd.setMessage("Logging In");
                ok.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
                    @Override
                    public void onClick(View v) {
                        String pass = password.getText().toString();
                        String userId = username.getText().toString();
                        boolean isConnected = isNetworkConnected(Login.this);
                        Log.d("Network Status", "Status is " + isConnected);
                        if (userId.equals("") || pass.equals("")) {
                            error.setText("Please provide UserName and Password...!!!!!");
                        } else {
                            if (isConnected) {
                                postHttpRequest(userId, pass, error);
                            } else {
                                Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                                        "No Network Connection", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
                                        .show();
                            }
                        }
                    }
                });
            }

        }

Answer 2

AS your static final String[] DASHBOARD_LINKS = new String[] { }; array contains no values so it is not that is why binding any data into your GridView.

Add some data into your String array and then bind it into your GridView adapter.
