无法在外部存储Android上编写pdf

Question

I am not able to write a pdf file downloaded from a url into android storage. I have read all related questions on this site, but still unable to fighre out whats wrong with my code.

Error is in pdfFile.createNewFile(); inside try{ } block.

private class DownloadFile extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Void> {

        @Override
        protected Void doInBackground(String... strings) {
            String fileUrl = strings[0];  
            String fileName = strings[1];  
            String extStorageDirectory = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().toString();
            File folder = new File(extStorageDirectory, "/test/");
            folder.mkdirs();

            File pdfFile = new File(folder, fileName);

            try{
                pdfFile.getParentFile().mkdirs();
                pdfFile.createNewFile();
            }catch (IOException e){
                e.printStackTrace();
            }
            FileDownloader.downloadFile(fileUrl, pdfFile);
            return null;
        }

I have correctly set permission in Android Manifest

Answer 1

I was testing it on my device running Android 6.0 Marshmallow, which requires extra permissions to access sensitive data.

Credit - @CommonsWare Android permission doesn't work even if I have declared it

This method can be used to ask user for permissions. Original answer - https://stackoverflow.com/a/33162451/4420961

public  boolean isStoragePermissionGranted() {
    if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 23) {
        if (checkSelfPermission(android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE)
                == PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
            return true;
        } else {

            Log.v(TAG,"Permission is revoked");
            ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, new String[]{android.Manifest.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE}, 1);
            return false;
        }
    }
    else { //permission is automatically granted on sdk<23 upon installation
        Log.v(TAG,"Permission is granted");
        return true;
    }


}

Answer 2

Please try this.

private class DownloadFile extends AsyncTask<String, Void, Void> {
    @Override
    protected Void doInBackground(String... strings) {
        String fileUrl = strings[0];  
        String fileName = strings[1];  
        String extStorageDirectory = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getPath() + "/test/";
        File folder = new File(extStorageDirectory);
        if (!folder.exists()) {
          folder.mkdirs();
        }
        fileName = extStorageDirectory + fileName;
        File pdfFile = new File(fileName);

        try{
            pdfFile.createNewFile();
        }catch (IOException e){
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        FileDownloader.downloadFile(fileUrl, pdfFile);
        return null;
    }
