I'm trying to use RecyclerView on my app and it keep crashing on Android 6. Could you guys help me?

I tried to debug and the app crashes in the onCreateView of the Fragment. It tries to inflate the fragment and then crashes.

Something I read on the internet and stop the crashing is removing the android:scrollbars="vertical", but, after removing it, it says " No adapter attached; skipping layout".

Solved my problem. I was using a wrong fragment. It has a similar name, but, it didn't the trick with RecylerView and the Layout Manager.

The right Fragment has this

    protected RecyclerView recyclerView;
private List<Noticia> noticias;
private LinearLayoutManager mLayoutManager;

@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState){
    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_noticia, container, false);
    recyclerView = (RecyclerView) view.findViewById(R.id.recyclerView);
    mLayoutManager = new LinearLayoutManager(getActivity());
    mLayoutManager.setOrientation(LinearLayoutManager.VERTICAL);
    recyclerView.setLayoutManager(mLayoutManager);
    recyclerView.setItemAnimator(new DefaultItemAnimator());
    recyclerView.setHasFixedSize(true);

    return view;
}
