Android - how to parse .xlsx (getting SAXNotRecognizedException)?

Question

Android

I'm trying to parse an excel file using apache.poi: An

error occurs:

Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXNotRecognizedException: http://xml.org/sax/properties/declaration-handler

build.gradle

dependencies {
    ...
    implementation 'javax.xml.stream:stax-api:1.0'
    implementation 'org.apache.poi:poi:4.1.2'
    implementation 'org.apache.poi:poi-ooxml:4.1.2'
    implementation 'org.apache.poi:poi-ooxml-schemas:1.4'

the code:

var inputStream = assets.open("sample.xlsx")
val book = XSSFWorkbook(inputStream)
val sheet = book.getSheetAt(0)

Tell me, what could be the error, or maybe there are some other libraries?

Answer 1

The first thing to check is if the "sample.xlsx" file exists where your code is trying to open it from.
And the second: is this file valid, maybe you have it broken at all.
