That is what I was trying to get at with my first rambling post. Recently Google implemented this dual key idea. Similar to Amazon. You sign it with key A. They strip Key A from the file you upload and they sign it with Key B. I have both keys on my desktop. I usually test with Key B because it is the key that will end up in the store and then upload it signed with key A.
Well thanks for the help!
I was kind of going crazy ahah
Anyway, just one more thing. When you say you have bot keys on your desktop and you usually test with key B (google’s one) you mean you can build the app using the deployment_cert.der file that you can download from the developer console?
I think we are talking about the same thing. On my desktop, I have both the upload key (Key A) and the google signing key (Key B ). I test with Key B but I can’t use that one to upload to Google.
I didn’t download them. I don’t know how to create a key.store from .der file. I created both keys and uploaded them to google.
Edit: I did find links online to convert that .der file to keystore. So it can be done and then you would have both keys like I have.
