htmlunit: ERROR in Android - NoSuchFieldError: No static field INSTANCE of type Lorg/apache/http/conn/ssl/AllowAllHostnameVerifier

Hi. Im sorry, but I’ve been trying to solve this problem for a while now and I really need help because this is frying by brain and eyes. So I would love to have some help.

• Here is my project
• Here is where I’m using htmlunit code
• Here’s some context to what Im trying to do (it’s when you click the button that appears right off the bat, if you open the project in android studio)

The error:

E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
    Process: paulor.nutritiontrackerkotlin, PID: 25944
    java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: No static field INSTANCE of type Lorg/apache/http/conn/ssl/AllowAllHostnameVerifier; in class Lorg/apache/http/conn/ssl/AllowAllHostnameVerifier; or its superclasses (declaration of 'org.apache.http.conn.ssl.AllowAllHostnameVerifier' appears in /system/framework/framework.jar!classes2.dex)
