ActivityNotFoundException {com.example.greetingcard/androidx.fragment.app.FragmentActivity};

Question

class FragmentActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    lateinit var binding : ActivityFragmentBinding

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        binding= ActivityFragmentBinding.inflate(layoutInflater)
        setContentView(binding.root)

        binding.fragment1Button.setOnClickListener {
            replaceFragment(BlankFragment2())
        }

        binding.fragment2Button.setOnClickListener {
            replaceFragment(BlankFragment2())
        }
    }

    private fun replaceFragment(fragment: Fragment) {
        val fragmentManager = supportFragmentManager
        val fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
        fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.fragment_container_view,fragment)
        fragmentTransaction.commit()
    }
}

This is the Fragment activity.

<activity android:name=".fragments.FragmentActivity">
        </activity>

Declaration in the manifest file.


        fragmentActivityButton.setOnClickListener {
            var intent = Intent(this@MainActivity, FragmentActivity::class.java)
            startActivity(intent)
        }

This is in the MainActivity.(startActivity(intent) is throwing the exception.)

</RelativeLayout>

This is FragmentActivity xml.

Couldn't find the problem behind the exception. Thanks in advance.

App is crashing giving activity not found exception.

please add all manifest code, build.gradle code, layout FragmentCtivity code and activity that launch fragment Activity — Stappo, Jul 31 '23 at 08:31

After many attempts i found the problem.

In your MainActivity you imported the uncorrect FragmentActivity, you named your second activity "FragmentActivity" but FragmentActivity is an Android default Activity of androidx library.

the solution is very easy: import correct activity!

from your MainActivity remove

import androidx.fragment.app.FragmentActivity

and add

import com.example.greetingcard.fragments.FragmentActivity

ActivityNotFoundException {com.example.greetingcard/androidx.fragment.app.FragmentActivity};
