NullPointerException in Fragment

I am working on fragments in my current application.

I am displaying 3 different tabs each of which having a fragment. I am getting a null pointer exception while accessing the view. Here is the code snippet:

public class DetailsFragment extends Fragment {

private TextView text;

public DetailsFragment() {
    // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub

}

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
}

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    View v = LayoutInflater.from(getActivity()).inflate(R.layout.ride_details_fragment,
            null);
    text = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.txt_ride_name);

            text.setText("Current Tab is: ");

    return v;
}

@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
}
//

}

Exception is in line text.setText. Here is the exception logs:

check that your ride_details_fragment contains textView with id txt_ride_name or not. this would be cause of this exception.

Why are you trying to get another inflater instead of provided one?

public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
            Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View v = inflater.inflate(R.layout.ride_details_fragment,
                container, false);
    text = (TextView) v.findViewById(R.id.txt_ride_name);
    text.setText("Current Tab is: ");

    return v;
}

And please make sure you have id = txt_ride_name (case-sensitive) inside ride_details_fragment.xml

Exception is in line text.setText.

Your ride_details_fragment.xml does not have a TextView with id txt_ride_name.

Either you inflated the wrong layout or your layout does not have the view with the id specified.
