Keystore Password Invalid

Thanks shayping!  That has worked now.  So it’s not just JDK we need, both JDK and JRE are needed.  I did not install JavaDB or the Code Samples, just JDK and JRE.

Can you explain how to do this?

Richard:

Here is a copy of keystore instructions.  Hope this helps.

 

Procedure

 

Generating an RSA keypair and self-signed
certificate can be performed from the command line in one shot. With this keypair,
an RSA-Signed Certificate can be created to sign applets.

 

Generate an RSA keypair:

 

  • Create two directories:

 

  • C:\mykeytools

 

  • C:\mykeytools\keys

 

 

 

  • Goto directory C:\mykeytools

 

  • Type:

keytool -genkey -alias myalias -keyalg RSA -validity 365
-keystore keys/my.keystore

 

  • Enter
    keystore password: **** mysecret

[no]: y

Enter key password for <myalias>

(RETURN if same as keystore password):

 

  • File C:\mykeytools\keys\my.keystore is created.

 

  • To view the fingerprints of certificates in the keystore,
    type:

keytool -list -keystore keys/my.keystore

You should see and do the following:

Enter keystore password: mysecret

Keystore type: jks

**Keystore provider: SUN

Your keystore contains 1 entry

myalias, 18-mei-2005, keyEntry,

Certificate fingerprint (MD5): D5:14:AB:F5:68:4B:1F:C9:80:8C:3E:95:D7:4D:E1:0E**

 

Thank you, I was able to build and install on my phone.

I have this problem also and it is extremely frustrating that there is no simple solution.  I have a clean build of Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit straight from MSDN.  I have installed Corona SDK.  I have thus far tried JDK 1.6 Update 38 and 45, uninstalled and re-installed a number of times (I’ve lost count actually how many times now).  I’ve tried JDK first then Corono SDK and Corono SDK first then JDK.  

Nothing I try gets past the invalid keystore/password problem.  I tried using the debug keystore and generating my own.  I’ve never had so much frustration with a development kit.

I’ve tried all of the things that others have reported and tried here, but no luck.  The folks that have got it working did so by luck of re-installing bits.  Would be nice to have a known fix that works each time.

Any help/suggestions appreciated.

I had the same problem when I installed JDK – without JRE.
But after I installed JDK with JRE, than Corona, it worked.

Thanks shayping!  That has worked now.  So it’s not just JDK we need, both JDK and JRE are needed.  I did not install JavaDB or the Code Samples, just JDK and JRE.
