Building APK certificate error

I'm trying to export my app for release, from testing so:

  • Checked the release option

  • Change the certificate with mine signed certificate, instead "default"

    The build fails with:
    Build error
    Most likely build error cause:
    App signing error has occurred. Please check your key/certificate alias and passwords.

    alias and passwords are ok, so what is wrong?

    Please note, my certificate is set as default, and previous exporting are in relrease with "use default" certificate choice .

Technofab,

I couldn't built app from your project with our certificate because there are changed files at the Source tab (the are blue). I've created copy of your project from backup, deleted them, then made undo all changes and after that app was successfully built. You may try to do the same.

I don't understand. I need to:

backup
delete project
recreate
recompile

???

And If I need to do something in the manifest? I need to lock the rotation.

Technofab,

The problem is most likely in your manifest. You may create backup of your project for any case, then delete changed files at the Source tab (this folder is blue) by clicking the gear near the folder

After that choose Undo all source changes by clicking the gear near Android folder

Then you should save the project and try to build it. This way you may be sure that the problem is in manifest.
