Answer 1

Rename element linearlayout to LinearLayout.
I had the same issue and fixed it that way.

Answer 2

The error complains about the wrong package for linearlayout (android.view.linearlayout). The correct one is android.widget.LinearLayout. But I couldn't find any reference to linear layout in your code. It might help if you can paste the full exception stack trace.
