Permission Denial while sharing file with FileProv

I am trying to share file with FileProvider. I checked that file is shared properly with apps like gmail, google drive etc. Even though following exception is thrown:

file_provider_paths.xml

Sharing Intent

Intent intentShareFile = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND);
        File fileWithinMyDir = new File(targetPdf);

        if(fileWithinMyDir.exists()) {
            intentShareFile.setType("application/pdf");
            Uri uri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(getActivity(), BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID + ".provider", fileWithinMyDir);
            intentShareFile.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, uri);
            intentShareFile.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,
                    "Sharing File...");
            intentShareFile.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "Sharing File...");
            intentShareFile.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
            startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intentShareFile, "Share File"));
        }

Hopefully you can point out my mistake why this exceptions is thrown when it seems like apps are granted permission properly and sharing works as it should be.

EDIT:

I found that the problem lies in line:

startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intentShareFile, "Share File"));

When I changed it simply to

startActivity(intentShareFile);

However it displays a little bit different layout for picking application. But still I cannot figure out why original chooser is not working.

Sorry about the late response. I solved it like this:

Intent chooser = Intent.createChooser(intentShareFile, "Share File");

List<ResolveInfo> resInfoList = this.getPackageManager().queryIntentActivities(chooser, PackageManager.MATCH_DEFAULT_ONLY);

for (ResolveInfo resolveInfo : resInfoList) {
    String packageName = resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName;
    this.grantUriPermission(packageName, uri, Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION | Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
}

startActivity(chooser);
