        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
        android:layout_margin="8dip">

        <ProgressBar
            android:id="@+id/prgDownload"
            style="?android:attr/progressBarStyleHorizontal"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="32dip"/>

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/txtDownload"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="32dip"
            android:gravity="center"
            android:text="..."
            android:textColor="#afafaf"
            android:textSize="18dip"
            android:textStyle="bold" />
    </RelativeLayout>

</LinearLayout>

This means you are having RelativeLayout wrapped in LinearLayout But Actually your Relative layout is required you just need to remove Linearlayout.

The Linear Layout contains a relative layout, which contains the rest of your views. Just remove the linear layout tags and you'll be good to go!
