Glide can't load file from internal storage

Question

I have an Activity in which I download a zipfile of images and then unzip in the getFilesDir(). Path is like this :

/data/user/0/packagename/files/files/example.png

When I try to load these images however, they're not showing. I'm using this code to get the path and load the image:

   String loc = getFilesDir().getPath() + "/" + Config.IMAGES_LOCATION +"/";
   String imageloc = loc + model.getThumbnail();
   Glide.with(ActivityImageGallery.this).load(imageloc).into(image);

The imageloc path is the same as the save location and when creating a file from the path, it shows that it would exist.

I tried using file:// in front of the path, but that doesn't work either. WRITE_EXTERNAL en READ_EXTERNAL permissions are asked and granted.

did you try using loading listener of glide using this https://stackoverflow.com/a/42067675/5492047 and check the exception ? and awesome tutorial can be found here in depth https://futurestud.io/tutorials/glide-getting-started. — Reyansh Mishra, Jul 24 '17 at 04:40
Probably the images are very large that the some devices can't load. Why don't you try with some small images? — Uddhav P. Gautam, Jul 30 '17 at 17:33

This works for me, make file instance and pass file's uri that you want to load into ImageView

Glide.with(context)
    .load(new File(fileUri.getPath())) // Uri of the picture
    .into(profileAvatar);

Make sure you have added

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />

You can also use RequestListener to trace the error in case of failure

new RequestListener<String, GlideDrawable>() {
            @Override
            public boolean onException(Exception e, String model, Target<GlideDrawable> target, boolean isFirstResource) {
                return false;
            }

            @Override
            public boolean onResourceReady(GlideDrawable resource, String model, Target<GlideDrawable> target, boolean isFromMemoryCache, boolean isFirstResource) {
                return false;
            }

First capture your image path,either you are capturing image from camera or picking it from gallery(I assume you have already given read and write permissions). Then Try this

Glide.with(context).load(new File(imagePath)).dontAnimate().error(R.drawable.errorImage).placeholder(R.drawable.placeholderImage).into(imageView);

Using .dontAnimate() because in some case it may be that image did not load or show when you load first time(or take extra time). Hope it will help.

Did you try using loading listener of glide using this

1.Debug:-

https://stackoverflow.com/a/42067675/5492047

Glide.with(getActivity())
 .load(args.getString(IMAGE_TO_SHOW))
 .listener(new RequestListener<String, GlideDrawable>() {
     @Override
     public boolean onException(Exception e, String model, Target<GlideDrawable> target, boolean isFirstResource) {
         return false;
     }

     @Override
     public boolean onResourceReady(GlideDrawable resource, String model, Target<GlideDrawable> target, boolean isFromMemoryCache, boolean isFirstResource) {

         return false;
     }
 })
 .into(imageFrame);

and check the exception ?

2.Debug Again.

Can you use any file explorer app and go to the exact place where the file is loaded and open then file?.

3.Path

Is it really /files/files/ in the path?

4.Extension Can you remove .png from the file path and load and check?

5.Tutorial

try this

File c = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/data/user/0/packagename/files/files/example.png");
Glide.with(MainActivity.this).load(c).error(R.drawable.empty_pic).placeholder(R.drawable.empty_pic).into(image2);

or try this

 Glide.with(getActivity()).load(new File(" your path").toString())
        .listener(new RequestListener<String, GlideDrawable>() {
            @Override
            public boolean onException(Exception e, String model, Target<GlideDrawable> target, boolean isFirstResource) {
                Log.e("xmx1","Error "+e.toString());
                return false;
            }

            @Override
            public boolean onResourceReady(GlideDrawable resource, String model, Target<GlideDrawable> target, boolean isFromMemoryCache, boolean isFirstResource) {
                Log.e("xmx1","no Error ");
                return false;
            }
        })
        .into(ivx);

i am getting images camera and gallery both can you please tell me which where i can get perfect path and set it in to glide for now i only see my place holder path= /storage/emulated/0/1586779115967.jpg like this. — Arbaz.in, Apr 13 '20 at 12:00

You would need run time permissions to use internal storage.Second use latest glide library compile 'com.github.bumptech.glide:glide:3.7.0' and format as

Glide.with(context).load(image path).into(Imageview);
