Fragment Inflate Error When Changes Orientation

Question

Ok, here is the problem, i have one Fragment Activity that has two fragments inside it. One is a ListFragment and the other a Fragment. So, i want to display the Fragment depending on which item is selected. Here is the problem. If i start this Fragment Activity either in Landscape mode or Portrait mode, it works fine. Whatever, when i change to the other orientation it always crashed. The error is about the inflator, something like the onCreateView but i looked in other posts and none of the other resolution such onConfigurationChanges, onSaveInstances, change from name to class. All has the same error. So, i hope somebody helps me. I do have the layout-land and the layout and still doesn't work.

Here is my codes.

activity_pontix (both land and portrait mode)

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="#CCFF99"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <TextView android:id="@+id/Pontix"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="50dp"
        android:gravity="center_horizontal"
        android:text="@string/pontix"
        android:background="#ffffff"
        android:textColor="#000000"
        android:textSize="40dp" />

    <LinearLayout

Answer 1

Both of your fragments need public empty constructors:

public class SideMenu extends ListFragment
{
   public SideMenu(){}
   ...

public class ContentPreview extends Fragment
{
   public ContentPreview(){}
   ...
