App crashes when retrieving data after user input all data?

Question

My code on how to retrieve data from the database. The data successfully saves in the database and suddenly my app crashes and the data can't be retrieved...

ViewAdsRef.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener()
    {
        @Override
        public void onDataChange(@NonNull DataSnapshot dataSnapshot)
        {
            if ((dataSnapshot.exists()))
            {
                String retrieveTuitionImage = dataSnapshot.child("adstuitionimage").getValue().toString();
                String retrieveTuitionName = dataSnapshot.child("adstuitioname").getValue().toString();
                String retrieveProviderName = dataSnapshot.child("adsprovidername").getValue().toString();

                Picasso.get().load(retrieveTuitionImage).placeholder(R.drawable.photocamera).into(ViewTuitionImage);

                ViewTuitionName.setText(retrieveTuitionName);
                ViewProviderName.setText(retrieveProviderName);
            }

            else
            {

            }
        }

        @Override
        public void onCancelled(@NonNull DatabaseError databaseError)
        {

        }
    });

Logcat shows below:-

The error log said that your called setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled() on a object that have not been initialized (null value) inside ViewAdsActivity.

I guess may be getActionBar() return null?

See: What is a NullPointerException, and how do I fix it?

Solution is taking the current user which was just uploaded:

ViewAdsRef= FirebaseDatabase.getInstance().getReference().child("Advertisements").child(intent.getStringExtra("UserKey"));

It works.
