android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #2: Error inflating class

Question

I am developing a simple app. Just finished the home screen. If the orientation changes more than two times, it is throwing the error and application is force closing.

Answer 1

As the others clarified, part of a problem was an issue related to the background image I'd set for my layout. However, getting that solved, I persistently encountered the error:

Unfortunately the application has stopped

With trial and error, I found the problem was caused by the elements which after deleting them, I could eventually run the application.
