import android.content.Intent; import android.support.v7.app.ActionBarActivity; import android.os.Bundle; import android.util.Log; import com.example.roshan.mystoryapp.R;
public class StoryActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
public static final String TAG = StoryActivity.class.getSimpleName();
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_story_activity2);
Intent intent = getIntent();
String name = intent.getStringExtra("name");
if(name ==null) {

Could you try going to Build, then Clean Project? If that doesn't fix it, we can try some other troubleshooting methods.

28,738 PointsHello,
The only two immediate things i can think of other than cleaning the project are to either try to invalidate the caches in Android Studio or possibly that its complaining that you're layout isn't named activity_story_activity2.
