“ArrayAdapter requires the resource ID to be a TextView” XML problems

I am getting an error when trying to set my view to display the ListView for the file I want to display(text file). I am pretty sure it has something to do with the XML. I just want to display the information from this.file = fileop.ReadFileAsList("Installed_packages.txt");. My code:

public class Main extends Activity {
    private TextView tv;
    private FileOperations fileop;
    private String[] file;

    /** Called when the activity is first created. */       
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {           
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); 
        this.fileop = new FileOperations(); 
        this.file = fileop.ReadFileAsList("Installed_packages.txt"); 
        setContentView(R.layout.main);
        tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.TextView01);
        ListView lv = new ListView(this);
        lv.setTextFilterEnabled(true); 
        lv.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, R.layout.list_item, this.file)); 
        lv.setOnItemClickListener(new AdapterView.OnItemClickListener() { 

              public void onItemClick(AdapterView<?> parent, View view,     int position, long id) { 
                    // When clicked, show a toast with the TextView text 
                    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), ((TextView) view).getText(), Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); 
              } 
        });         
        setContentView(lv);
    }
    
}

list_item.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical" 
    android:padding="10dp"   
    android:textSize="16sp"   
    android:textColor="#000">

</LinearLayout>

main.xml :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:weightSum="1">
<ScrollView
    android:id="@+id/SCROLLER_ID"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:scrollbars="vertical"
    android:fillViewport="true">
        <TextView  
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
        android:padding="5sp"
        android:id="@+id/TextView01"
        android:text="@string/hello"/>
    </ScrollView>
    
</LinearLayout>
