Android spinner crashing when clicked on

I have a spinner on my page, which is populated using an arrayAdapter. When i launch my app everything is ok, but the moment i click on the spinner, the app crashes and logcat gives me no reference to a line in my code. Here is the area of the code referring to the spinner:

profiles = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinner1);

    SetSql getprofiles = new SetSql(this);
    getprofiles.open();
    spinnerArray = getprofiles.getProfiles();
    if(spinnerArray[0]==null){
        spinnerArray = new String[1];
        spinnerArray[0] = "No Profiles, Please Create One";
    }
    getprofiles.close();

    ArrayAdapter<String> array = new ArrayAdapter<String>(UserActivity.this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, spinnerArray);
    array.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
    profiles.setAdapter(array);

    //I am using the post method to make sure that this spinner wont run when the activity is started
    profiles.post(new Runnable(){
        public void run(){
            profiles.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {

                @Override
                public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> ListView, View arg1,
                        int pos, long arg3) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                        if(!profiles.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString().equals("No Profiles, Please Create One")){
                            String selected = profiles.getItemAtPosition(pos).toString();
                            Intent intent = new Intent(UserActivity.this, DPAActivity.class);
                            intent.putExtra("username", selected);
                            startActivity(intent);
                        }
                }

                @Override
                public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                }
            });
        }

    });

More logcat:

My getProfiles Code

    public void createProfile(String name) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        ContentValues cv = new ContentValues();
        cv.put(KEY_USER, name);
        ourDatabase.insert(TABLE_USERS, null, cv);
    }

    public String[] getProfiles() throws SQLException{
        String[] columns = new String[]{KEY_USER};
        Cursor c = ourDatabase.query(TABLE_USERS, columns, null, null, null, null, KEY_ROWID);
        String[] result = new String[100];

        int iName = c.getColumnIndex(KEY_USER);
        int count = 0;
        for(c.moveToFirst(); !c.isAfterLast(); c.moveToNext()){ 
            result[count] = c.getString(iName);
            count++;
        }
        return result;
    }
}

This is returning a string array.

 if(arrayspinner[0]==null){
        arrayspinner = new String[1];
        arrayspinner[0] = "No Profiles, Please Create One";
    }

change your code and try

EDIT:

instead of Array try using ArrayList

List<String> arrayList=Arrays.asList(your string array);

or else try to initialize your array by getting the size of your response.

EDIT 2:

List<String> a= Arrays.asList(new String[]{});
        if(a.size()==0){
            a=new ArrayList<String>();
        a.add("xxx");
        a.add("bbbb");
        }
        final Spinner s=(Spinner)findViewById(R.id.spinner1);
        ArrayAdapter<String> array = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, a);
        array.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
        s.setAdapter(array);
        s.post(new Runnable() {

            @Override
            public void run() {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                s.setOnItemSelectedListener(new OnItemSelectedListener() {

                    @Override
                    public void onItemSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0, View arg1,
                            int arg2, long arg3) {
                        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                    }

                    @Override
                    public void onNothingSelected(AdapterView<?> arg0) {
                        // TODO Auto-generated method stub

                    }
                });
            }
        });

tried a sample same as your code and it works.

EDIT 3:

public String[] getProfiles() throws SQLException{
        String[] columns = new String[]{KEY_USER};
        Cursor c = ourDatabase.query(TABLE_USERS, columns, null, null, null, null, KEY_ROWID);
        String[] result;
        if(c != null && c.getCount()!=0){
        result = new String[c.getCount()];

        int iName = c.getColumnIndex(KEY_USER);
        int count = 0;
        for(c.moveToFirst(); !c.isAfterLast(); c.moveToNext()){ 
            result[count] = c.getString(iName);
            count++;
        }
        }else{
        result = new String[]{"No Profiles, Please Create One"};
        }
        return result;
    }

Change if condition inside onItemSelected as :

if(profiles.getItemAtPosition(pos).
                       toString().equals("No Profiles, Please Create One")){
   // your code here....
 }

because currently you are using ListView.getItemAtPosition for getting selected item from Spinner
