Android. Error inflating class fragment

Question

I'm learning the Udacity course of Developing Android Apps. While going through the instructions I came across this error. I would appreciate any help that would help me solve it.

I may have the same errors as other users however the code that's causing it might be different. Thanks for your patience

I have attached the logcat. <------------------->

The culprit is "NetworkOnMainThreadException". You're trying to execute network requests on the main thread. You should make network requests only in background threads.

That's an error also however how should that effect => android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #1: Error inflating class fragment. I'm not sure if it does as I'm new to android. – Sidd Jun 06 '15 at 17:34
@Sidd, It's possible for one error to cause another. The "NetworkOnMainThreadException" is the underlying error, and is the one you should focus on. – Dmitry Brant Jun 06 '15 at 17:46
Thanks a lot. I'll try fixing that error! :D – Sidd Jun 06 '15 at 17:50
Most of the people following the udacity tutorial are early beginners, perhaps you could be more specific with your answer? – Parsa Jun 07 '15 at 16:00
