Question

I’m getting an error when trying to start a service with an intent from another service in an Android 2.3.3 project. The error is: Unable to start service with Intent{ act=(class name) cmp=(class name)/.(android name) }: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:provider==null

Method Call:

private void startLocationService(){
    intent = new Intent("com.example.Android.LocationService");
    intent.setClass(MainService.this.getApplicationContext(), LocationService.class);
    startService(intent);
}

Manifest:

<service android:name=".LocationService">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="com.example.Android.LocationService"/>
        </intent-filter>
    </service>
</application>

Answer 1

Is the problem a provider in LocationService.class ?
