Error inflating NavigationView class -- android

Question

I'm trying to use NavigationView, but when I try to launch the app to the phone an error happens.

Caused by: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #16: Error inflating class android.support.design.widget.NavigationView

The xml files are:

activity_main:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout

I really don't know what is going, because is supposed taht is all OK.

EDIT, addded styles files

style

<resources>

    <style name="Theme.EyeSky" parent="Base.AppTheme"/>

    <!-- Base application theme. -->
    <style name="Base.AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.NoActionBar">
        <!-- Customize your theme here. -->
        <item name="colorPrimary">@color/colorPrimary</item>
        <item name="colorPrimaryDark">@color/colorPrimaryDark</item>
        <item name="colorAccent">@color/colorAccent</item>
        <item name="android:windowBackground">@color/window_background</item>
    </style>

</resources>

style-v21

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
    <style name="Theme.EyeSky" parent="Base.AppTheme">
        <item name="android:windowDrawsSystemBarBackgrounds">true</item>
        <item name="android:statusBarColor">@android:color/transparent</item>
    </style>
</resources>

EDIT 2

I'm using Android SDK Platform-Tools 23.1.0, and in gradle file:

android {
    compileSdkVersion 23
    buildToolsVersion "23.0.3"

menu

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

    <group android:checkableBehavior="single">
        <item
            android:id="@+id/nav_home"
            android:checked="true"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_home"
            android:title="@string/home_item"/>
        <item
            android:id="@+id/nav_map"
            android:checked="true"
            android:icon="@drawable/ic_home"
            android:title="@string/map_item"/>

        <!-- Configuration section-->

        <item
            android:id="@+id/configuration_section"
            android:title="@string/configuration_item">
            <menu>
                <item
                    android:id="@+id/nav_log_out"
                    android:icon="@android:drawable/ic_lock_power_off"
                    android:title="@string/log_out_item"/>
            </menu>
        </item>
    </group>

</menu>

EDIT: Solution Found.

The problem was at navigation_header file. I had a ImageView, that for some reason, the height and width, didn't take it for the dimens.xml file. SO, I set it manually, and worked perfect. Here is how finally look,, this ImaveView (from a library)

<de.hdodenhof.circleimageview.CircleImageView
        android:id="@+id/profile_image"
        android:layout_width="64dp"
        android:layout_height="64dp"
        android:layout_marginBottom="16dp"
        android:scaleType="centerCrop"
        android:src="@drawable/perfil2"
        app:border_color="@android:color/white"
        app:border_width="1dp"/>

Manifest has in application tag -->` android:theme="@style/Theme.EyeSky"` — Shudy, Jun 16 '16 at 12:18
@Shudy try this and let me know it's working or not.http://stackoverflow.com/questions/30709419/error-inflating-class-android-support-design-widget-navigationview — Abhishek Patel, Jun 16 '16 at 12:30
@AbhishekPatel nope, I tried without "Color[Primary/SEcondary]Text" in colors.xml, and in style file, there is no reference of any "android:textColor.." — Shudy, Jun 16 '16 at 12:35
there are many upvoted answer try that also because it was a common problem for all developers — Abhishek Patel, Jun 16 '16 at 12:39
In android 6 (more or less the same code) is running without issues, so it could be related with the header? Have your tried cleaning/rebuilding the project? — josemigallas, Jun 16 '16 at 12:43
I found the problem. In the dimens.xml I had set some dimensions for imageview in navigation_header.xml In code, AS, don't marked any problem , but for some reason, didn't take the the dimensions. after put it "manually" `android:layout_width/height=64dp` it worked. Thanks for the help! — Shudy, Jun 17 '16 at 10:45
