Android Error - Error inflating class

I am just starting with android development through Java (i have only previously used phonegap).

I created my first hello world project with a simple form text field and send button, and it won't run.

My error log is below:

12-06 20:31:11.482: E/AndroidRuntime(32656): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example.thesurvivor2299/com.example.thesurvivor2299.MainActivity}: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #1: Error inflating class android.widget.RelativeLayout

As there are a lot of files, i'm not sure which would be best to provide the code of. Let me know which file, and i'll copy the code in here.

MainActivity.java:

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
}

@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
    // Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
    getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
    return true;
}

}

activity_main.xml:

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@style/AppTheme"
android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >

<TextView
    android:id="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="@string/hello_world" />

<EditText
    android:id="@+id/editText1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignLeft="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_below="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_marginTop="35dp"
    android:ems="10"
    android:inputType="textWebEditText"
    android:singleLine="true" />

<Button
    android:id="@+id/button1"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_alignRight="@+id/textView1"
    android:layout_below="@+id/editText1"
    android:layout_marginTop="36dp"
    android:text="Send" />

</RelativeLayout>

I can post any of the code if it helps

This type of error can be fixed by going to the file R.java and search for the error entry e.g 0x7f0201f2 from your log. It would correspond to a variable. And if you look at the containing method of this entry it will tell you whether it is a string, id, dimen etc. Then you can just search for this variable in your project and find if it has been declared in your resource files.

You didn't close <RelativeLayout> tag in Your layout.

Add </RelativeLayout> at the end of xml file.
