By the way, the MapFragment is come from BottomNavigationView tab

        R.id.navigation_map -> {
        val mapFragment = MapFragment()
        mapFragment.setArguments(intent.extras)
        supportFragmentManager.beginTransaction()
                .add(R.id.fragment_container, mapFragment).commit()
        return@OnNavigationItemSelectedListener true

MapFragment.java

public class MapFragment extends Fragment implements OnMapReadyCallback {

    private View rootView;
    private AppCompatActivity context;
    private SupportMapFragment supportMapFragment;
    private GoogleMap map;


    public MapFragment() {

    }

    @Override
    public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                             Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        // Inflate the layout for this fragment
        rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_map, container, false);

        context = (AppCompatActivity) getActivity();
        supportMapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentmap);

        if (supportMapFragment != null) {
            supportMapFragment.getMapAsync(this);
            getFragmentManager().beginTransaction()
                    .replace(R.id.fragment_container, supportMapFragment).commit();
        } else {
            Toast.makeText(context, "Error - Map Fragment was null!!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
        }
        return rootView;
    }

    @Override
    public void onMapReady(GoogleMap googleMap) {

    }
}

If you are using fragment inside another fragment then better to use getChildFragmentManager as it return a private FragmentManager for placing and managing Fragments inside of this Fragment.

supportMapFragment = (SupportMapFragment) getChildFragmentManager().findFragmentById(R.id.fragmentmap);
