Navigation drawer rendering error in TableLayout

Question

I want to insert drawers on each of the layout in my application. This is my xml code

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:id="@+id/drawerActivity"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <TableLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
            android:id="@+id/tableLayoutActivity"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:background="@android:color/white"
            android:padding="5dp"
            android:stretchColumns="*">
            <!--   <TableRow android:id="@+id/tableRow0"
                   android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                   android:layout_width="match_parent">
               </TableRow>-->


            <TableRow
                android:id="@+id/tableRow3"
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:layout_weight="1"
                android:background="#fff">

                <ScrollView
                    android:id="@+id/queryScrollView"
                    android:layout_width="match_parent"
                    android:layout_span="2"
                    android:padding="5dp">

                    <TableLayout
                        android:id="@+id/queryTableLayoutActivity"
                        android:layout_width="match_parent"
                        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                        android:padding="5dp"
                        android:stretchColumns="*"></TableLayout>
                </ScrollView>
            </TableRow>

        </TableLayout>

    <ListView
        android:id="@+id/navList"
        android:layout_width="200dp"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:layout_gravity="left|start"
        android:background="#ffeeeeee"
        android:choiceMode="singleChoice" />
</android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout>

I get this error on running the application (Stacktrace)

Similar question but not exact solution required for me

What am I missing in this. I am unable to insert drawer to my layout. Is there a permanent solution for this apart from mentioning exact height and width.

DrawerLayout must be measured with MeasureSpec.EXACTLY. You have to put match_parent for the height.

kick the tablayout out and try with a other layout just for test – Oliver U. Mar 30 '16 at 21:45
it works without table layout. but i need it as i have to add rows of data dynamically – human Mar 30 '16 at 21:52

the tablelayout height is wrap_content – Oliver U. Mar 30 '16 at 22:00
even if i change that to match_parent it throws same error – human Mar 30 '16 at 22:04
hmm... maybe its the padding. Im not sure. just test a bit around. The error occurs because the drawer needs the full height. I had the same problem once. I only had to change one statement to match_parent. – Oliver U. Mar 30 '16 at 22:23
