    Remember that the maximum length is 23 characters in a tag, otherwise you will get an IllegalArgumentException .

    The definition of the tag is:

    tag : Used to identify the source of a log message. Typically, it identifies the class or activity where the registration call occurs.

    In this case the problem is the length of your tag "APIComm:AssetsPropertyReader", reduce it to 23 characters or less , for example:

    mistake:

    Log.e("APIComm:AssetsPropertyReader", e.toString());

    option:

    Log.e("APIComm:AssetsPropRead", e.toString());

    In the documentation you can review what was mentioned above.

    It should be noted that in android 7.0 (Nougat), this length is no longer a concern, if you define it in your project targetSdk 24you can easily add the desired number of characters in the TAG, of your message to be displayed in the LogCat.

  2. The solution tells you in the same error, the label (tag) cannot have more than 23 characters. That is, it cannot have more than 23 letters, otherwise it will throw an exception.

    The label is the first parameter that receives the statement:

    Log.i("etiqueta", "mensaje de error);

    Your problem is solved by shortening the label. Instead of using APIComm:AssetsPropertyReaderyou can use APIComm:AssetsProperty.

    Log.e("APIComm:AssetsProperty", e.toString());
