on callingback the viewpager fragment on back press got this error You must call removeView() on the child's parent first

i'm replacing Fragment1(which has a view pager) from its child Fragment1 with Fragment2.

 Fragment fragment = Childfragment1.this.getParentFragment();
    FragmentManager fragmentManager = fragment.getFragmentManager();

    FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
    Fragment2 Fragment2 = new Fragment2();


    fragmentTransaction.replace(R.id.cat_container, Fragment2 , "Fragment2 ");
    fragmentTransaction.addToBackStack("Fragment2 ");
    fragmentTransaction.commit();

its working fine but when press back button it crashes with the error

The specified child already has a parent. You must call removeView() on the child's parent first on super.onBackPressed(); line

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {


    int count = getFragmentManager().getBackStackEntryCount();


    if (count == 0) {


        super.onBackPressed();


    } else {


        getFragmentManager().popBackStack();

    }




}

here is my logcat error

 java.lang.IllegalStateException: The specified child already has a parent. You must call removeView() on the child's parent first.

Here's an updated answer, as I predicted the other fix caused a knock on problem:

This was triggered in a previously working App when I upgraded com.google.android.material from 1.1.0-alpha05 to 1.2.0-alpha04, a bit of experimenting shows problems with anything above 1.1.0-alpha07. So try reverting back to this version or earlier if you don't like the alpha's

implementation 'com.google.android.material:material:1.1.0-alpha07'

I'm still not sure if this is actually a bug in com.google.android.material, or whether the upgraded library uncovered a lurking flaw in my code.

Old Answer below as it may still provide someone a useful clue:

In my Fragments onCreateView I'd being stashing the created view

override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View? {
    if (searchView == null) {
        searchView = super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState)
        ...
    }
    return searchView
}

I removed the code doing this and that's fixed the problem.

override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View? {
    val searchView = super.onCreateView(inflater, container, savedInstanceState)
    ...
    return searchView
}

I'm trying to remember now why I was stashing the view away in the first place, sure I'm soon going to find something else in my App is broken now.
