Unfrotunately app stopped onActivityResult

Question

I am new to android development. This is a test app through which I am trying to invoke an image to my activity. Everything seems fine except when I am returning the camera Image in onACtivityResult(); the app crashes. I have included Logs so that I can point out the position the error is actually happening.

here is the Mainfest file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<application

    android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"

    android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"

            android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
            android:resource="@xml/file_paths"></meta-data>
    </provider>
    <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />

        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round">
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />

            <data
                android:scheme="http"
                android:host="www.example.com"
                android:pathPrefix="/nilabhra" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
    <activity
        android:name=".DisplayMessageActivity"
        android:parentActivityName=".MainActivity">
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.support.PARENT_ACTIVITY"
            android:value=".MainActivity" />
        <intent-filter android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round">
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND"/>
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>
            <data android:mimeType="text/plain"/>
        </intent-filter>
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.media.action.IMAGE_CAPTURE" />
            <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

This is the capture function:

public void capturePhoto(){
    Intent captureIntent = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
            if (captureIntent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager())!= null){
            startActivityForResult(captureIntent, REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE);
            Log.i(TAG, "capturePhoto: funtion ran succesfully");

    }

}

this is OnActivityResult:

@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
                if (requestCode == REQUEST_IMAGE_CAPTURE) {
                            if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {
                Log.i(TAG, "onActivityResult: success");

            }

        } else {
            if (resultCode == RESULT_CANCELED) {
                Log.e(TAG, "onActivityResult: error and RESULT_CANCEllED TRUE");
            }
        }
}

and this is the Log after I take the shot form camera app and return the Intent:

The stack trace says you're doing a `ContentResolver` query in `onActivityResult()`, but your code shows no such thing. — Mike M., Mar 07 '18 at 07:26
You might need to set the target URI as an extra before you start the activity: captureIntent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, photoURI); — Kackao, Mar 07 '18 at 07:27
@MikeM. The ContentResolver I am using for a contact intent and yes , it is in onActivity results. Can't I put multiple results on a same onActivityresults? — Nilabhra Chakraborty, Mar 07 '18 at 12:11
Yes, but that wasn't my point. You've not provided crucial info. The stack trace clearly shows that the `query()` method is throwing the `NullPointerException`. We need to see how you're calling it, what you're passing to it, etc. — Mike M., Mar 07 '18 at 12:15

I have omitted the contact intent an now app is not crushing after I return from the camera app but the Image is not showing in the ImageVIew. and the log.i() onActivityResult is not showing up in the logcat — Nilabhra Chakraborty, Mar 07 '18 at 17:48

Put this before startActivityForResult

Uri imageUri = getOutputMediaFileUri(MEDIA_TYPE_IMAGE);
    intent.putExtra(MediaStore.EXTRA_OUTPUT, imageUri);

I am sure there is no problem with the contact result, because when I omit the code for camera result , the onActivityresults working fine. – Nilabhra Chakraborty Mar 07 '18 at 15:00
sorry my bad there was a problem in the contentResolver() – Nilabhra Chakraborty Mar 07 '18 at 17:45
