error while signing Android app

[J. Landman Gay]

I did a search for the first few words of the error message and got a lot 
of hits. Here's one:

There are several solutions but it sounds like the keystore file can't be 
found, or else the alias name doesn't match the keystore fillename. It may 
be that the keystore tool you're using assigned a different alias name.

I wonder if diacriticals or foreign characters may interfere. Name your 
alias and keystore with a single word using only plain ascii, no spaces or 
punctuation. The outside world will never see it.

It's not hard to just use Terminal to generate your own keystore. That way 
you know what's in there.
