I have checked several times the name of my layout RecyclerView as I show on other StackOverflow questions but it is correct. The error of the logcat is this:
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.example.selfcial/com.example.selfcial.Models.MessageActivity}: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'void androidx.recyclerview.widget.LinearLayoutManager.setStackFromEnd(boolean)' on a null object reference

This is the MessageAdapter:

Is the error occured by a mistake on the MessageAdapter or is it a bug somewhere else? I also tried to change LinearLayoutManager
line to LinearLayoutManager linearLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(this);
but this didn't work too.
You call findViewById()
here:
recyclerView.findViewById(R.id.recycler_view_chat);
But you are calling the findViewById()
method on your recyclerView
variable, not assigning the result of your Activity's findViewById()
to your variable, so your variable is always null.
recyclerView = findViewById(R.id.recycler_view_chat);
