Access denied finding property "camera.hal1.packagelist" 

what will be the reason and its solution? Please help..

Answer 1

I was working with the OpenCV tutorial code for camera app on android. I encountered the same error, and after looking at the answers I indeed missed one permission.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/> 

Although the app doesn't save any data externally, without this permission, the access denied error occurs. Hope it helps.

Answer 2

I got the same error in my app, i was using surface view and had it weight set to zero. I changed it back to 1 and the error got resolved. Do check your xml code, it may help.
