startActivity with Action and Uri crash the app

Question

I want to open a new activity and pass it a URI of local html file(which is in the assets of the project):

public void onClick(View v) { Intent i = new Intent("com.appstudio.android.MY_ACTION",Uri.parse("file:///android_asset/sfaradi_mazon.html")); MainActivity.this.startActivity(i); }

And this is how i declared the responding activity in the Manifest:

<activity android:name="BlessingActivity"> <intent-filter> <action android:name="com.appstudio.android.MY_ACTION"/> <data android:mimeType="text/html"/> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/> </intent-filter> </activity>

But for some reason the app is crashing at startActivity(Action, Uri).

I'm getting an ActivityNotFoundException. No Activity was found to handle the intent

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Clear the output before you provoke the crash and set the log level to "error". If not already doing so, run on an emulator -- there's much less log spam going on compared to a real device. — Philipp Reichart

You have specified a MIME type in the <intent-filter> but do not have it in the corresponding Intent. Either remove the <data> element or call setDataAndType() on the Intent instead of supplying the Uri in the constructor.
