How to add child fragment inside parent fragment android?

Question

I have main layout. I want to add fragment in main LinearLayout. But if I want to add child fragment in main fragment, it is currently present and visible.

<LinearLayout
    android:id="@+id/linearlayout_fragment"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:layout_above="@+id/footer"
    android:layout_below="@id/header"
    android:orientation="vertical" >
</LinearLayout>

In Fragment activity, I added this:

FragmentManager fragmentManager = getSupportFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();

HomeFragment homeFragment = HomeFragment.newInstance();
homeFragment.setRetainInstance(true);
fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.linearlayout_fragment, homeFragment);
fragmentTransaction.commit();

Now I want to add child fragment in current home fragment:

FragmentManager fragmentManager = getChildFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();

RepairFragment repairFragment = RepairFragment.newInstance();
repairFragment.setRetainInstance(true);
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.linearlayout_fragment, repairFragment);
fragmentTransaction.commit();

But I got Exception:

I tried:

fragmentTransaction.replace(getParentFragment().getId(), repairFragment);
fragmentTransaction.replace(getView().getId(), repairFragment);

so try another xml

       <FrameLayout
            android:id="@+id/linearlayout_fragment"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent"
            android:layout_above="@+id/footer"
            android:layout_below="@id/header" >

Solved . Just assigned id to parent fragment layout

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/linearlayout_repair_fragment"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" >

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textview_repair"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:text="repair" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textview_repair_1"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:text="repair 1 " />

</LinearLayout>

and

fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.linearlayout_repair_fragment, repairFragment);
