Error: unable to instantiate activity in android - java

I am following a tutorial to creating a sliding navigation with a drawer navigation.
Android Manifest.xml

Please how can i solve this problem of unable to instantiate activity? Thanks

What exceptions throws
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.aa.slide.MainActivity
ClassNotFoundException occurs when class loader could not find the required class in class path . So , basically you should check your class path and add the class in the classpath.
Rebuild and Clean up your Project.Please check This SO Answer.
For your information,Since the version 22.1.0, the class ActionBarActivity is deprecated. You should use AppCompatActivity or Actvity . I hope it helps you .

Be sure that this is in your gradle file:
dependencies {
compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:21.0.0'
}
The problem is that the dalvikVM can't find import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity; which is the superclass of your MainActivity
You can see this in:
08-14 13:18:18.632: W/dalvikvm(12483): Unable to resolve superclass of Lcom/aa/slide/MainActivity; (11)

Try this in Manifest file:
**android:name=".MainActivity"**
<activity
android:name="com.aa.slide.MainActivity"
android:label="#string/app_name"
android:theme="#style/Theme.MyCompatTheme">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>

Android App Emulator Issue

I have created a project in Android Studio:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
RelativeLayout DakotasLayout = new RelativeLayout(this);
Button redButton = new Button(this);
DakotasLayout.addView(redButton);
setContentView(DakotasLayout);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
FloatingActionButton fab = (FloatingActionButton) findViewById(R.id.fab);
fab.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
Snackbar.make(view, "Replace with your own action", Snackbar.LENGTH_LONG)
.setAction("Action", null).show();
}
});
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_main, menu);
return true;
}
#Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long

int id = item.getItemId();
//noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement

}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
}

The problem is my app shuts down every time I launch it in the emulator.
I'm not sure what's wrong in my java file. It might be my manifest file that's wrong, but I'm not sure.
Here's the logcat:

The problem is you are not setting a valid layout for what your activity is expecting. Your layout needs to have in it a defined view for each call to findViewById(...); you have. The view's ID will match what you pass into the method.
Currently you are only setting your content view to a relative layout with a button so you are likely getting a NullPointerException when you lookup other views using findViewById(...); and later try to use them.
Look inside your res/layout directory for a valid layout file and use that as your content view instead since this looks like a template to begin with.
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

Application crashes during execution

I am trying to make a navigation drawer but every time it's executed the application crashes. I am a beginner. Please, let me know if you need any more info and thanks

You're making a silly error in the second activity code due to copy pasting:
DisplayMessageActivity:
if (savedInstanceState == null) {
getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction().add(R.id.container, new PlaceholderFragment()).commit();
}
}
You're trying to add the PlaceholderFragment to the R.id.container, when the content view of the second activity is the TextView, which does NOT have the container, aka the layout specified by R.id.container does not exist in the second activity.
Remove these lines from the second activity and it should work.
You forgot to add the activity to the manifest I think...
<activity
android:name="DisplayMessageActivity"
android:label="#string/..." >
</activity>
Check your XML layout for MainActivity, you specify findViewById(R.id.edit_query) for your EditText which was never declared.
Add the stared line to your fragment_main.xml file
`<EditText
**android:id="#+id/edit_query**
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:hint="#string/edit_message"
android:layout_weight="1"/>`

Android: Navigation Drawer NullPointerException

I am using code from the developer website (http://developer.android.com/training/implementing-navigation/nav-drawer.html) to install a navigation drawer, however, I am getting a NullPointerException in this method:
/* Called whenever we call invalidateOptionsMenu() */
#Override
public boolean onPrepareOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// If the nav drawer is open, hide action items related to the content view
boolean drawerOpen = mDrawerLayout.isDrawerOpen(mDrawerList);
menu.findItem(R.id.action_search).setVisible(!drawerOpen);
menu.findItem(R.id.action_settings).setVisible(!drawerOpen);
return super.onPrepareOptionsMenu(menu);
}

Your menu.xml has only one time with id= action_settings. You should add another menu item for search.
example:
You can use searchView

android:icon="#drawable/ic_action_search"
android:title="#string/action_search"

I have to use navigation drawer in API 8 so using support packages. Please help me.
Either your mDrawerList is null or mPlanetTitles is null. Check them both at the debugger.

The error You are facing is in this line of code
mDrawerList.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this,
R.layout.nav_drawer,R.id.content_frame, mPlanetTitles));
mPlanetTitles seems to be null
