Error when creating Android standalone SOLVED

[Klaus major-k]

Hi all,

in case someone is interseted:
Panos was able to solve my mysterious problem!

I had JDK 1.8.0_281 installed which worked with my keystore file from 
august 2024, that was the time I created and uploaded my very first 
Android app to Google.

I never had updated JAVA so far.

Then in august 2025, when Google needed an update, I got this error:
"Invalied keystore format..." in LC.

No idea what might have changed under the hood.

So today after many trials with LC and SHELL and JARSIGN and whatnotall, 
Panos send me his JDK, which was JDK 1.8.0_301 and that finally worked
again with my keystore files.

Kudos to Panos, YAY! :-)


Best

Klaus
