MapboxFragment.java

public class MapBoxFragment extends Fragment {

    private MapView mapView = null;

    View convertView;


    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {

        convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_map, null);

        mapView = (MapView) convertView.findViewById(R.id.altMapView);
        mapView.setStyle(Style.MAPBOX_STREETS);
        mapView.setCenterCoordinate(new LatLng(0, 0));

        // Show user location (purposely not in follow mode)
        mapView.setMyLocationEnabled(true);
        return convertView;
    }
}

When using the same layout within the Activity it is working.

I was got this exact problem when I updated my Mapbox SDK for android. I solved it by adding mapView.onCreate(savedInstanceState) after I initialzed the MapView. Hope this helps.
