Android Linear Layout not filling Scrollview

Question

I don't understand why I'm unable to get the linear layout (blue outline) to extend to the full size of the scrollview (the red, green and black areas) in the pic below. I've tried different combinations of gravity and fill but no luck. What am I missing?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"

I think you want like this

here is the corrected code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/top_control_bar"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linearLayout1"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:background="#111111"
        android:orientation="vertical" >

        <LinearLayout
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:minHeight="60dip"
            android:orientation="horizontal" >

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/header"

                android:gravity="center"
                android:text="Title"
