According to your problem

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: DrawerLayout must be measured with MeasureSpec.EXACTLY

So you should set EXACTLY width to your DrawerLayout .

You can set android:layout_width="match_parent" and try again .

Change

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
            android:id="@+id/navigation_Drawerlayout"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
            tools:openDrawer="start">
            <include layout="@layout/navigation_drawerlayout" />

to

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
            android:id="@+id/navigation_Drawerlayout"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="match_parent"
            android:fitsSystemWindows="true"
            tools:openDrawer="start">
            <include layout="@layout/navigation_drawerlayout" />

Ever come across the error when it is already `match_parent`? I arrived here with that issue. – Abandoned Cart Nov 04 '18 at 20:35
And you can check your root layout in your `xml` . if it used `wrap_content` ,you can change it and try again . @AbandonedCart – KeLiuyue Nov 06 '18 at 09:13
@KeLiuyue "it is already `match_parent`" but I was curious if you had any better suggestions than blindly changing `wrap_content` to `match_parent`. The solution was to define dimensions for the window via `getWindow().setLayout` to be passed down to any implied instance of relative dimensions. – Abandoned Cart Nov 06 '18 at 22:33
@AbandonedCart you can try use `getWindow().setAttributes(p);` . – KeLiuyue Nov 07 '18 at 01:30
@KeLiuyue Please take the time to read my comment, since it provides a much shorter form of the accessor you are trying to suggest. It also states that the issue was **solved** – Abandoned Cart Nov 08 '18 at 03:36
