Android keystore stopped working

by

I may have had the same problem. I never did figure out why it was failing (though I wonder if it was because the keystore password was shorter than 6 digits), but I was able to copy my key into a new keystore, which I then renamed to replace the old one, and it mysteriously worked after that (using the new passwords). Needed the key password, by the way. Working off https://security.stackexchange.com/a/3795, I did the following:

  1. keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore old.keystore -destkeystore new.keystore -v
  2. Entered the new keystore password twice
  3. Hit Enter when it asked me for the source keystore password (left it blank)
  4. Entered the key password

After double-checking that the new one worked, I just copied it over the old one. Hope it works for you; good luck.
