I also encountered the error message

Error code: 393238 | Buffer overflow, no available space.

For me, the reason was that I was targeting Android 24. Android 24 has a change that results in a FileUreExposedException being thrown when using a file:// URI instead of a content:// URI. For more details, see:

Better solutions are described here:

android.os.FileUriExposedException: file:///storage/emulated/0/test.txt exposed beyond app through Intent.getData()
