Here is my InfoBookActivity.java
package thesleeplesselite.drgreenthumb;
import android.app.ListActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.MenuItem;
public class InfoBookActivity extends ListActivity {
// -- AUTO-GENERATED CODE --
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_infobook);
}
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.menu_infobook, menu);
return true;
}
@Override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
// Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
// automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
// as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
int id = item.getItemId();
// noinspection SimplifiableIfStatement
if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
return true;
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}
// -- END OF AUTO-GENERATED CODE --
}
I want to set it using a custom layout and this is the code for my xml:

The key is this from your stack trace:
Your ListView in the xml layout needs the following id:
(notice its not @+/id)
