Button inside DrawerLayout is not clickable

Question

I've been searching for a while with this issue and i cant find solution yet. For my design of DrawerLayout, I will not be using listview but linearlayout as container for my views. I test it first by adding a button inside the linearlayout but i cant click it. Heres the XML.

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

<LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/left_drawer"
        android:background="@color/white"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:layout_width="250dp"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">
    <Button
            android:id="@+id/btn_test"
            android:text="TEST"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
    <EditText

            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</LinearLayout>

<FrameLayout
        android:id="@+id/container_fragment2"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
        >
</FrameLayout>

In java, I also tried to put text in the button once it is being loaded and its working.The only thing that is not working is when i click it. the drawer will just close.

/**Init Drawer*/
private void initDrawer(){

    mDrawerLayout = (DrawerLayout) findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout);
    mDrawerContainer = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.left_drawer);

    //mDrawerContainer.setOnClickListener(new DrawerItemClickListener());
    mDrawerContainer.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Toast.makeText(context,"initDrawer",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    });

    btn_test = (Button)mDrawerContainer.findViewById(R.id.btn_test);
    btn_test.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() { //this is not working,i cant click the button
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            Log.e("MyActivity","test");
            Toast.makeText(context,"test",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
    });
    btn_test.setText("hooray"); //this one is working,it change the text to hooray once loaded


}

Im looking forward for your input guys,

Thanks a lot.

Its so ironic, I just change the positions of my layout. I transferred the linearlayout below the fragment and its now working.

<android.support.v4.widget.DrawerLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@+id/drawer_layout"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">



<FrameLayout
        android:id="@+id/container_fragment2"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        android:layout_marginTop="1dp"
        android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
        android:layout_alignParentEnd="true"
        >
</FrameLayout>

<LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/left_drawer"
        android:background="@color/white"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_gravity="start"
        android:layout_width="250dp"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">
    <Button
            android:id="@+id/btn_test"
            android:text="TEST"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>
    <EditText

            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

</LinearLayout>
