What to do when - java.io.FileNotFoundException: No content provider?

when I try to attach a file to an email, I get a java.io.FileNotFoundException: No content provider logcat output. If anyone could tell me what I am doing wrong or what I should do instead, that would be great.Thank you.

This is how I add the files to the email..:

Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
                sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
                sendIntent.setType("video/3gp");
                sendIntent.setType("video/mp4");
                startActivity(sendIntent);

...and here is the entire logcat error output:

Solution 1:

Maybe you should pass an uri of the form file:///sdcard/Video0006.mp4.

Solution 2:

You can also try this:

Uri.fromFile(new File(your image path));

Solution 3:

This worked for me

val uri:Uri =  File(path).toUri()
