Capture a photo by Intent

Question

I am trying to make the "Take photo" tutorial from here and after following all the steps I still have an error. More exactly after I take the picture it displays the message "camera has stopped". I added a button that opens the camera on click and an imageView to display the photo. I am trying to deploy the app on Samsung Galaxy S7 (Android 8.0.0,API 26).

This is the setOnClickListener:

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

        Button button = (Button) findViewById((R.id.button));
        ImageView imageView = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.imageView);

        if (ContextCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, Manifest.permission.CAMERA) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            button.setEnabled(false);
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{Manifest.permission.CAMERA, Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 0);
        }

        button.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                dispatchTakePictureIntent();

            }
        });
    }

And this is the methos for camera:

private void dispatchTakePictureIntent() {
        Intent takePictureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
        takePictureIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION);
        // Ensure that there's a camera activity to handle the intent
        if (takePictureIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
            // Create the File where the photo should go
            File imageView = null;
            try {
                imageView = createImageFile();
            } catch (IOException ex) {
                // Error occurred while creating the File
                ex.printStackTrace();
            }
            // Continue only if the File was successfully created
            if (imageView != null) {
                Uri photoURI = FileProvider.getUriForFile(this,
                        "com.example.camapp.fileprovider",
                        imageView);
                takePictureIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, photoURI);
                startActivityForResult(takePictureIntent, REQUEST_TAKE_PHOTO);
            }
        }
    }

The file path:

And the permission:

Provider:

And i have the same method for onActivityResult() createImageFile() and galleryAddPic() from the tutorial.

Here is the stacktrace:
