SOLVED: Problem with Keys when generating StandAlone

Post by simon.schvartzman » Thu Feb 11, 2021 10:18 pm

Hi team, here I'm again with problems to generate Standalone for Android.

I was able to generate the "release.keystore" file and carefully made a note of the two password used: one for the keystore password and another for the private key password. I have also pointed to the right folder on the Key field of the standalone configuration and selected Sign with my Key on the Signing field.

I'm getting this error:
"There was an error while saving the standalone application. signing failed - keystore load: Keystore was tampered with, or password was incorrect"
My environment is:

- Android Studio 3.1
- LC 9.6.1
- macOS Mojave
- Java 1.8

I've been scratching my head for more than 4 hours with no success....help please!

Many thanks

SOLVED using Jacques hint
BTW, the dialogs that ask for the keystore info are wonky. I get that error every time if I enter the credentials too fast. You have to type each letter VERY slowly and wait in between for a bit. Usually I count to three in between keystrokes. That seems to work. I suspect something is going on behind the scenes to do some kind of processing before it's ready to accept the next letter.
I also used a password with no special characters...

It's better now, I only have to wait about 1 second.
