android - java.lang.IllegalStateException: You must either set a text or a view

Question

I'm new to android and I keep getting this error while clicking on a button which process database requests. I don't know what's going on because everything was working yesterday and I didn't do any changes at all.

The errorlog:

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
Process: com.example.myapplication, PID: 7510
java.lang.IllegalStateException: You must either set a text or a view

And the code errorlog refers to:

private fun userLogin() {
        val email: String = emailText.text.toString().trim()
        val password: String = passwordText.text.toString().trim()

        val stringRequest = object : StringRequest(
                Method.POST, URL_LOGIN,
                Response.Listener<String> { response ->
                    try {
                        val obj = JSONObject(response)
                        if (!obj.getBoolean("error")) {
                            SharedPrefManager.getInstance(applicationContext)
                                    ?.userLogin(
                                            obj.getInt("id"),
                                            obj.getString("email"))
                            Toast.makeText(applicationContext, obj.getString("message"), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()

                        }else{
                            Toast.makeText(applicationContext, obj.getString("message"), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()

                        }
                    } catch (e: JSONException) {
                        e.printStackTrace()
                    }
                },
                Response.ErrorListener { volleyError -> Toast.makeText(applicationContext, volleyError.message, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show() }) {
            @Throws(AuthFailureError::class)
            override fun getParams(): Map<String, String> {
                val params = HashMap<String, String>()
                params.put("email", email)
                params.put("password", password)
                return params
            }
        }

Code which is calling this function:

 override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.login_layout)

    buttonLogin.setOnClickListener {
        userLogin()
        this.finish()
    }
}

Honestly, I have no idea what this error means, if I need to provide more code please let me know.

                return params
            }
        }


override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    setContentView(R.layout.login_layout)

    buttonLogin.setOnClickListener {
        userLogin()
       
    }
}
