Solution 1

You are trying to refer to a resource that does not exist. I would suggest you go to http://www.codeproject.com/KB/android/#Android+Tutorial+Contest[^] and study some of the excellent articles on Android programming.

Solution 2

Say you have placed an mp3 file called "sound.mp3" in the res/raw:

int resourceID=getResources().getIdentifier("sound", "raw", getPackageName());
MediaPlayer mediaPlayer=MediaPlayer.create(this, resourceID);
mediaPlayer.start();
