Java – ActivityNotFoundException when trying to start a second activity

I’m just starting to learn Android app programming, I’m taking the official Android basics tutorial, but I don’t understand why I’m getting an error when executing an intent and the app throws this error at me.

public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {

public static final String EXTRA_MESSAGE = "com.panagetstudios.androidapp.MESSAGE";

@Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    }

@Override
    public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
         Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
        return true;
    }

@Override
    public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(MenuItem item) {
         Handle action bar item clicks here. The action bar will
         automatically handle clicks on the Home/Up button, so long
         as you specify a parent activity in AndroidManifest.xml.
        int id = item.getItemId();
        if (id == R.id.action_settings) {
            return true;
        }
        return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
    }

public void sendMessage(View view){
        Intent inte = new Intent(this, DisplayMessageActivity.class);
        EditText edittext = (EditText) findViewById(R.id.edit_message);
        String text = edittext.getText().toString();
        inte.putExtra(EXTRA_MESSAGE, text);
        startActivity(inte);
    }

}

Here is my list file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.panagetstudios.androidapp"
    android:versionCode="1"

        android:minSdkVersion="11"
        android:targetSdkVersion="21" />

        <activity

                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>

<activity
        android:name=". DisplayMessageActivity"
        android:label="@string/title_activity_display_message" >
            <meta-data
                android:name="android.support.PARENT_ACTIVITY"
                android:value="com.panagetstudios.androidapp.MainActivity" />
        </activity>

</application>

</manifest>

Please help me, I’m lost, I can give you more information if necessary.

You should have the full package name of your activity:

<activity
    android:name="com.panagetstudios.androidapp.DisplayMessageActivity"
    android:label="@string/title_activity_display_message" >
        <meta-data
            android:name="android.support.PARENT_ACTIVITY"
            android:value="com.panagetstudios.androidapp.MainActivity" />
    </activity>

Also, make sure your activity is located in the folder src/com.panagetstudios.androidapp
