Exception 'open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)' on Android

Question

I am getting

open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)

on the line OutputStream myOutput = new FileOutputStream

Answer 1

I have observed this once when running the application inside the emulator. In the emulator settings, you need to specify the size of external storage ("SD Card") properly. By default, the "external storage" field is empty, and that probably means there is no such device and EACCES is thrown even if permissions are granted in the manifest.
