Android: Progressbar must not be null using Kotlin

Question

I am dismissing a progressBar in my app after making webService call. But it crashes with this exception.

IllegalStateException: search_progress_bar must not be null

I am using kotlin. This is my layout:

I have this import in fragment class:

import kotlinx.android.synthetic.main.eco_after_payment_process.*

 override fun onViewCreated(view: View, savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {

    search_progress_bar.getIndeterminateDrawable().setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(search_progress_bar.context, R.color.black), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN)
    search_progress_bar.getProgressDrawable().setColorFilter(ContextCompat.getColor(search_progress_bar.context, R.color.black), PorterDuff.Mode.SRC_IN)
    val animator = AnimatorInflater.loadAnimator(context, R.animator.ninja_animator)
    animator.setTarget(ninja_face)
    animator.start()
    assignTechnician()
}

private fun assignTechnician() {
    var params = JSONObject()
    try {
        params.put("order_id", order_id)
    } catch (e: JSONException) {
        e.printStackTrace()
    }
    val responseListener = Response.Listener<JSONObject> {
        val message = it.optString("Message")
        if (message.equals("Success", true)) {
            Handler().postDelayed({
                checkTechnicianAssignment()
            }, 60000)
        } else {
            search_progress_bar.visibility = View.GONE
            val snackbar = Snackbar.make(eco_after_payment_process, "Network Error.", Snackbar.LENGTH_INDEFINITE)
            snackbar.setAction("Retry", View.OnClickListener {
                snackbar.dismiss()
                assignTechnician()
            })
            snackbar.show()
        }
    }

    val errorListener = Response.ErrorListener {
        search_progress_bar.visibility = View.GONE
        val snackbar = Snackbar.make(eco_after_payment_process, "Network Error.", Snackbar.LENGTH_INDEFINITE)
        snackbar.setAction("Retry", View.OnClickListener {
            snackbar.dismiss()
            assignTechnician()
        })
        snackbar.show()
    }

    search_progress_bar.visibility = View.VISIBLE
    Api.triggerTechnicianAssignment(params, responseListener, errorListener)
}

It crashes inside errorListener search_progress_bar.visibility = GONE with above exception. I checked the assigned id multiple times. Not getting what is wrong.

In your code there is no onCreateView function overriden. Is it added in your Fragment File or not? If you forgot that than this might be the issue.
