How to add manifest permission to an application?

I am trying to access HTTP link using HttpURLConnection in Android to download a file, but I am getting this warning in LogCat:

WARN/System.err(223): java.net.SocketException: Permission denied (maybe missing INTERNET permission)

I have added android.Manifest.permission to my application but it's still giving the same exception.

Assuming you do not have permissions set from your LogCat error description, here is my contents for my AndroidManifest.xml file that has access to the internet:

<manifest xlmns:android...>
 ...
 <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
 <application ...
</manifest>

Other than that, you should be fine to download a file from the internet.

Permission name is CASE-SENSITIVE

In case somebody will struggle with same issue, it is case sensitive statement, so wrong case means your application won't get the permission.

WRONG

<uses-permission android:name="ANDROID.PERMISSION.INTERNET" />

CORRECT

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

This issue may happen ie. on autocomplete in IDE
