I follow this tutorial to take photo and save into device storage, but when I execute it, it got an exception
java.io.IOException: Permission denied on line: File image = File.createTempFile(imageFileName, ".jpg", storageDir);
How to solve this?
private File createImageFile() throws IOException
{
// Create an image file name
String timeStamp = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMdd_HHmmss").format(new Date());
String imageFileName = "JPEG_" + timeStamp + "_";
File storageDir = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DCIM), "Camera");
File image = File.createTempFile(imageFileName, ".jpg", storageDir);
// Save a file: path for use with ACTION_VIEW intents
mCurrentPhotoPath = "file:" + image.getAbsolutePath();
return image;
}
--Edit--
Here is my manifests
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
package="com.example.idea.takephoto">
<uses-feature android:name="android.permission.CAMERA"/>
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>
<!--<uses-feature android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/>-->
<application
android:allowBackup="true"
android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
android:label="@string/app_name"
android:supportsRtl="true"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
<activity android:name=".MainActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<provider
android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
android:authorities="${applicationId}.provider"

android:grantUriPermissions="true">

</provider>
</application>
As in the Android Documentation, you need to write to the external storage, you must request the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission in your manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
...
</manifest>
If you use API 23 (Marshmallow) and above, you need to Requesting Permissions at Run Time because it's a Dangerous Permission.
If your target api level is >=29 or you are using android 10 then please add following line in your app's manifest file in application tag
android:requestLegacyExternalStorage="true"
