Android music player prepare method failed

I have been trying to play an MP3 file. It just won't work.
I did manage to play it and add all sorts of functionalities to it with the very same/similar code a few days ago. Just tried to make it all over again and now these errors...
Can someone point out the error also why does this happen.
Just to clarify I used different formats of URI, none of them work. Thought maybe its the prepare method.

I always had problems trying to use "raw" folder... I suggest putting the sound file in "assets" and using the methods here to set / prepare / and play:
http://droidapp.co.uk/2011/06/08/android-dev-playing-a-mp3-from-assets/

Just do something like:
MediaPlayer mp;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.yourSongFileName);
btn_play.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
mp.stop();
mp.release();
mp = null;
mp = MediaPlayer.create(this, R.raw.yourSongFileName);
mp.start();
//Other stuff below.
See if that works.

Start looking on line 44 of recipePage.java

MORE DETAILS:
Following line is not filling jsondefs
ArrayList<JSONObject> jsondefs = Request.fetchData(this, nvp);

Looks like this call is unsafe:
ArrayList<JSONObject> jsondefs = Request.fetchData(this, nvp);
String title = null;
try {
title = jsondefs.get(0).getString("Name"); //<--- Here jsondefs could be empty
} catch (JSONException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
if jsondefs is empty, you could see the error you are mentionning.

Most likely thrown by one of the jsondefs.get(0)… You should add an if(!jsondefs.isEmpty()) and an else that prints something so that you know what the problem is.

Unable to Create ePub

I'm trying to create an ePub file in android. Below is my source code.
But I'm getting NullPointerException at
epubWriter.write(book, out);
I've put the cover.png and test1.html in assets folder.
What about *.css,mimetype,META-INF/container.xml,OEBPS/*.opf,*.otf files?
Are they compulsory to build an ePub file?
I'm able to create a file but that is not in proper format I guess as when I pull that file from device and try to view it in Calibre, it doesn't open by giving following error
calibre, version 0.8.38
ERROR: Could not open ebook: File is not a zip file
I'm absolute beginner to ePub development so any help/suggestion would be appreciated.
CreateEPub.java
public class CreateEPub extends Activity {

try {

book.getMetadata().addTitle("Epub test book 1");
book.getMetadata().addAuthor(new Author("Joe", "Tester"));
InputStream is = assetManager.open("cover.png");
book.getMetadata().setCoverImage(new Resource(is, "cover.png"));
// Add Chapter 1
InputStream is1 = assetManager.open("test1.html");
book.addSection("Introduction", new Resource(is1, "chapter1.html"));
EpubWriter epubWriter = new EpubWriter();
epubWriter.write(book, new FileOutputStream("test1_book1.epub"));
Log.v("ePub", "Created");
} catch (Exception e) {

Thanks in advance.
Thank You David and Jitendra.
I corrected the error and I get a nullPointerException in one part of the code.What did I do wrong?
public void onClick(View v)
{
try // The error is in this block
{
EditText et = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.EditText01);
String str = et.getText().toString();
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(socket.getOutputStream())),true);
out.println(str);
Log.d("Client", "Client sent message");
}
catch (UnknownHostException e)
{
tv.setText("Error1");
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (IOException e)
{
tv.setText("Error2");
e.printStackTrace();
}
catch (Exception f) // I get the error here. java.lang.NullPointerException
{
tv.setText("Error3");
tv.setText(f.toString());
f.printStackTrace();
}
}

Your error is on this line:
tv.setText((CharSequence) serverAddr);
serverAddr is of type InetAddress, and you're trying to cast it to a CharSequence which cannot be done. Perhaps you meant:
tv.setText(serverIpAddress);

Exception is in following line:
tv.setText((CharSequence) serverAddr);
and it is because you are trying to cast serverAddr into CharSequence.
If you really want to print serverAddr use
tv.setText((CharSequence) serverAddr.toString());

Can't load a static file on Android 2.1

I need to load a text file which is placed in res/raw directory into memory. Here is my code:
package com.ggd543.android;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.res.Resources;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.TextView;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.InputStream;
public class FileActivity extends Activity {
/**
* Called when the activity is first created.
*/
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
loadText();
}
private void loadText() {
// InputStream is = Resources.getSystem().openRawResource(R.raw.text);
InputStream is = getResources().openRawResource(R.raw.text);
try {
byte[] buf = new byte[is.available()];
is.read(buf, 0, buf.length);
((TextView) findViewById(R.layout.main)).setText(new String(buf, "UTF-8"));
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace(); //To change body of catch statement use File | Settings | File Templates.
}
}
}
}
When I deploy the .apk on emulator and start it up, I got the following error:

Could anyone give me suggestion ?
Thx

Move the file to the assets folder.
Then retrieve the stream like this InputStream is = getAssets().open("fileName");
if you have assets/mytxtfile.txt
then fileName = "mytxtfile.txt"

What is the file name ? coz as per odcs, if you've a file called 'abcd.txt' in /res/raw, you're suppose to open it using resource ID "R.raw.abcd", i.e. excluding the 3 digit extension.
