My app crashes when I try to implement a Scroll Bar

I have a problem with my app, i started coding in Android studio recently and i got a problem i can`t solve. So i have a main page with 4 activities, when i run the program in the emulator the app opens and 3 of the activities work perfectly but the one where i try to implement the scrollbar crashes when i click to open the activity.

Here's the code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ScrollView 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:paddingLeft="5dp"
    android:paddingRight="5dp"
    android:paddingBottom="5dp"
    android:paddingTop="5dp" 
    tools:context=".coffeeGrowth" >

        <RelativeLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent">

                <TextView
                    android:id="@+id/textView"
                    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
                    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                    android:keepScreenOn="true"
                    android:text="@string/large_text"
                    android:textColor="#008000"
                    android:textSize="30sp"
                    android:textStyle="italic" />

        </RelativeLayout>


</ScrollView>

And the crash:

Your XML is wrong my friend.

A ScrollView is not a layout option. Its a view. So you need to wrap your Layout around the scrollview. Keep in mind, a ScrollView can only have ONE child.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<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:paddingLeft="5dp"
    android:paddingRight="5dp"
    android:paddingBottom="5dp"
    android:paddingTop="5dp" tools:context=".coffeeGrowth" >

    <ScrollView
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">


    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/textView"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:keepScreenOn="true"
        android:text="@string/large_text"
        android:textColor="#008000"
        android:textSize="30sp"
        android:textStyle="italic" />

   </ScrollView>

</RelativeLayout>
