[SudKul]

Name of the Codelab or Codelab URL Kotlin Android Fundamentals: Styles and themes

Describe the problem The GDGFinderFinal app is crashing when clicking on the FAB, generating the following exception:

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
    Process: com.example.android.gdgfinder, PID: 21069
    retrofit2.HttpException: HTTP 404 Not Found
        at com.jakewharton.retrofit2.adapter.kotlin.coroutines.CoroutineCallAdapterFactory$BodyCallAdapter$adapt$2.onResponse(CoroutineCallAdapterFactory.kt:104)

        at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:923)
I/Process: Sending signal. PID: 21069 SIG: 9

Possible reason for crashing In the GdgApiService.kt file, the @GET("gdg-directory.json") is not getting resolved at the BASE_URL = "https://android-kotlin-fun-mars-server.appspot.com/".

In which lesson and step of the codelab can this issue be found? Lesson 10: Designing for everyone + Step 7. Solution code

How to reproduce? Run the GDGFinderFinal app, and click either on the FAB or the Menu --> GDG Search. It will momentarily show a new screen saying "Waiting for location and network result", and then crashes.
