action bar does not show After applying theme

This my style page:

<resources>
<color name="for_custom">#ff4db0e8</color>
    <style name="CustomTheme" parent="android:Theme.Light">
        <item name="android:windowBackground">@color/for_custom</item>
        <item name="android:actionBarTheme">@color/for_custom</item>
        <item name="android:displayOptions">homeAsUp</item>
    </style>
</resources>

And this is my manifest:

<application android:label="@string/app_name" android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher" android:theme="@style/CustomTheme">

action bar does not show After applying theme.Why? What is my mistake?

If you are on Lollypop+ the default Theme is Material, which does not show the ActionBar. This is because the Material Design spec remarks the Toolbar view as the new way to keep the buttons. If you want the old style, use Theme.Holo.Light instead of just Theme.Light
