build.gradle:
Android build.gradle shows following error
ERROR: ParseError at [row,col]:[65,9] Message: expected start or end tag Affected Modules: app
I got the same error, and the wrong character was found in the [row, col] position of the AndroidManifest.xml, not build.gradle
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent">
For me was because I inserted layout width in the layout view from a xml file.
I got this same error, and finally I found that there is error in Mainfest.xml file
<service
android:name=".onboarding.httpserver.HttpService"
android:exported="false"
>
</service>>
you see, there are two >> after /service. which is wrong.
After I fix this error, this message is disappear
I got the same error similar one like
Message: expected start or end tag
Affected Modules: app
[row, cal] 17,17
I forget an unnecessary /> characters in Manifest. Try to clean if any one has it.
In my project i have made two mistakes that are
Extra > in manifest file
There are some errors in my XML file as in image
so go to Analyse> Inspect Code> to find the problems
I got a Commented line in manifest file, when i removed the commented line and build the gradle file then the error is solved.
I got this error after updating the Gradle version, Manifest file was the same though. However reformatting the code in Manifest fixed it.
when say [27:15] that means you have an error in that position . go to the 27th line and if you have any wrong character correct it or maybe forget the /> or any little mistake in your manifest.xml
NOTE: some times the Merged Manifest can help you.
Simple answer see any thing by mistakenly added unwanted code in the manifest.xml file.
if manifest.xml file is not visible in the android studio project
Goto project folder choose the manifest.xml file and cross check unwanted or commented code.
You're using the wrong comment syntax.
Please remove the # comment from the Manifest file and replace it with <!-- Comment -->.
check any unwanted characters that are added in the manifest file by mistake. After removing those characters/lines the problem was solved in my working application. check once and happy coding
also had the same error. just look at the location [row] at the Manifest file and fix the problem (I had extra ">")
It usually happens when there is mistakenly if you have entered any special character or alphabets or numbers in AndroidManifest.xml file
Here meaning [row,col]:[65,9] error in line number between 64 to 66
In my case it happenen because as I shown in below screen shot
Here meaning [row,col]:[65,9] error in line number between 64 to 66
Hope it helps
In my layout file I accidentally put android:padding="16dp" in data binding layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:padding="16dp" <-----this cause the error in my case
>
.............
..............
..........
</layout>
after removing android:padding="16dp" work fine
for me, I got this error when I forgot to add
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
in my XML layout
For me it's fixed when I am deleted these 2 lines.
It did fixed for me when I do that. Hope you will solve with this answer.
i added this line twice by mistake:
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

You can easily find these issues with Analyse -> Inspect code.
In manifest file I commented like
/* something i wrote here
*/
When i deleted this commented line then it was synced and run properly.
It seems like those kind of errors are general and even if they pinpoint the location of the error, they don't mention in which file the error occurs.
A good way to resolve this error is to check inside the latest .xml files you modified.
The common steps to spot and fix the error are:
Check what files have been changed in this commit.
Go through each file and check [row,col] or [row-1] position.
Find out which file caused the error and fix it.
In my case the error was
ParseError at [row,col]:[2,6]
Message: The processing instruction target matching "[xX][mM][lL]" is not allowed.
I spotted the error in my drawable/background.xml file which looked like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<inset xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:inset="#dimen/card_view_corner_radius">
<shape android:shape="rectangle">
<corners android:radius="#dimen/card_view_corner_radius" />
<solid android:color="?attr/colorActionDialogBackground" />
</shape>
</inset>
Error: the first line was empty.
Fix: remove the first empty line, so the first line in the xml file should be <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
Just Replace The ic_launcher_Background and ic_launcher Foreground
with the correct Code..
Also Check with the Midmap Images if they have some kind of mistake in the XML Code
and Replace them with the Correct Code..
I Will Provide the More Detailed Answer With XML Complete Code If Anyone Finds It Useful...
I'm using the Firebase Remote config and i found there's issue with locally stored xml for remote_config, "remote_config_local.xml" value json.
I have a problem after updating Android Studio version from 2.2.* to 3.0.1. The problem is XML Layout doesn't show in design mode.
API / Device changing didn't solve my problem.
The error message is:

Even if I create clean xml layout, I still get the same error message.
XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">
</LinearLayout>
Does anyone face this problem before and what is the solution for this?
Update. I did downgrade to 2.2.2 and everything work now. Thanks for suggesting.
Try below trick:
In Android Studio:
Files -> Invalidate Caches / Restart
Please let me know if this solved your issue.
Once i had this issue, and my issue was resolved when i tried changing theme in xml layout.
Also check your theme in android manifest and styles. It can be an theme error.
I am attaching an image for your convenience.
I've checked online for a solution tried solutions from this page: Error: Suspicious namespace and prefix combination [NamespaceTypo] when I try create Signed APK and also errors in hello world xml but there's no solution. The funny thing is when I try to build a debug of the app or a release for tv and wear everything works well. Error:
(9) Error: Suspicious namespace and prefix combination [NamespaceTypo]
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Explanation for issues of type "NamespaceTypo":
Accidental misspellings in namespace declarations can lead to some very
obscure error messages. This check looks for potential misspellings to help track these down.

Layout file part of the code:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:materialdesign="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="horizontal">
A solution to this is very helpful
Instead of what you have on line 3:
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
Use:
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
Please change your namespace
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
to
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
Fixed the problem...I had been working on the project using Android Studio version 1.0 and got the problem when I updated to version 1.5.1 So all I did is just getting back to the old version and things were okay, I have no idea why this is the case...
You can reproduce those errors by using the tool Analyse->Inspect code in android studio.
in the xml make sure that
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
and
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools".
If you can write like xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/tools" ,you will get an error.
I have got a strange situation when I working on my project.I have just run my application once. Then I changed some "android:margin" properties for my XML files. Then the problem came. I ran the project and it crashed. The log says it comes Resource Not Found Exception. Next I tried to export it but it failed to export. I'll post the log and error dialog below.
What have I done:
I reinstalled everything such as eclipse,ADT and SDK. Not work at all. I'm absolutely sure that the resource exists and stays in right position.**
All useful information is needed.
ps: The resource file that not found is an activity layout xml file--my intro activity and I've found the resource id in my R file.
ps: My friends use the same code as me.They don't have any problem.
here's my layout xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="#+id/fl_base_activity"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/iv_base_wallpaper"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:scaleType="centerCrop" />
<ImageView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:src="#color/trans_cc" />
</FrameLayout>
Try re-building your project , If that doesn't work , delete the 'build' and 'gen' folders of project(you can take a backup elsewhere but remove them from your project folder) and then try running it again.
Let me know if that works.....
I've found why : So stupid fail that there is a resource with no suffix has been add in my project from SVN. It has a same name with correct resource name but without .png, eclipse can't distinguish what's the difference between them. It has no error notice. WTF!
I am trying to create my first Android app. I am using Eclipse. I create a project, and before I add any code myself, I run the default project, and I get the 'Hello, MyApp' in my emulator.
All good.
I then drag and drop a button onto my 'avtivity', under the text that was added when I create the project.
Suddenly, XML errors!
[2012-06-02 18:03:48 - FuelLogger] res\layout\main.xml:0: error: Resource entry main is already defined.
[2012-06-02 18:03:48 - FuelLogger] res\layout\main.out.xml:0: Originally defined here.
[2012-06-02 18:03:48 - FuelLogger] D:\Android\eclipse\Workspace\res\layout\main.out.xml:1: error: Error parsing XML: no element found
[2012-06-02 18:03:49 - FuelLogger] Error in an XML file: aborting build.
It has created a new files, main.out.xml
What's that? It's empty.
My main.xml looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/hello" />
<Button
android:id="#+id/button1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Button" />
</LinearLayout>
If I look at the 'Graphical Layout' tab, it looks fine...
I am obviously missing something here. Hope someone can help.
I think you have selected your main.xml and is oped in code window;
then you r pressing RUN button of eclipse.
Which creates error.
First of All:
DELETE : main.out.xml
From your res\layout\ folder Then
To run project:
Make open "Project Explorer"
Rigth Click on Your Project,
Click Run AS
Click Android Application
Delete the main.xml.out file from your res/layout folder and the clean and build/run the application. If you are not able to delete the file from eclipse delete it from your workspace and the clean and build/run the application
Delete main.out.xml, and run as Android application after cleaning.
Here is detailed description
Similar problem answers: main-out-xml-parsing-error
also you might want to look here. Seems related to your question, that main.out.xml is what's causing the trouble...
