FragmentManager has been destroyed

Question

EDIT: It seems that this only happens if my previous activity is in landscape, and the setRequestedOrientation() is portrait, what could possibly be the problem?

I have a code in an activity, which starts a Volley request to a REST API to retrieve some data, and have a callback which will start a fragment if the data was successfully retrieved. However this only works in portrait mode, in landscape mode, it will throw exception with "Fragment Manager Has Been Destroyed".

I can't seem to find the root of this problem, therefore I can't try any alternative solutions.

This is my onCreate() method of this activity:

@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setRequestedOrientation(SettingsManager.getOrientationSettings(this));
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_settings);

        findViews();
        setListeners();
        getSettings();
    }

goSettings() will retrieve the data, set requested orientation will either be ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT or ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_USER_LANDSCAPE.

My loadFirstPage() method:

  private void loadFirstPage() {
        VMSSettingsPageOneFragment fragment = new VMSSettingsPageOneFragment();
        FragmentManager fm = getSupportFragmentManager();

        fm.beginTransaction()
                .replace(R.id.settings_fragment_container, fragment)
                .commit();
    }

The error message:

E/FileUtils: File Write Exception
    java.lang.IllegalStateException: FragmentManager has been destroyed

Answer 1

You can implement a check before committing the fragment transaction, something as follows.

 public boolean loadFragment(Fragment fragment) {
        //switching fragment
        if (fragment != null) {
            FragmentTransaction transaction = fm.beginTransaction();
            transaction.replace(R.id.main_frame_layout, fragment);

            if (!fm.isDestroyed())
                transaction.commit();
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

Answer 2

maybe you can use parentFragmentManager.beginTransaction() instead of childFragmentManager in code will look like

dialog.show(parentFragmentManager.beginTransaction(), BaseFragment.TAG_DIALOG)
