Android: Unable to install signed apk file

[Alex Schimp]

Hi,

 

I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure this out.  I can't get a signed production version of my app to install on the Android simulator or real device.  A debug version of the app installs perfectly, so I don't see why the signed version won't.  I checked the output of the rake cmd, but didn't find any errors.  I tried the production version using the auto-generated certificate and also with one that I created myself, but neither works.

 

The build is using the Android 2.1 SDK, and I have tried installing it on Android 2.1 simulator, Android 4.0 simulator, and an Android 2.3.3 actual device.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Alex Schimp

Have you changed the default settings of your phone? Look at Settings --> Applications --> Development.

I have the "Allow installation of non-market apps" option enabled.  I looked at Settings -> Applications -> Development and everything was enabled there as well.  But I'm not trying to install a development (debug) version - that already works.  The problem I'm having is with the signed production version.

How to I get the adb log?  The method I'm using to install is to put the apk file in my public dropbox folder, then go into the android simulator and download it, and try to install it.

 

Thanks,

Alex

Here's the relevant part of the adb log.

 

The main things that stand out to me are " No content provider found for permission revoke: file:
///mnt/sdcard/Download/Seed to Harvest_signed.apk" and "Package com.alex_software_development.seedtoharvest has
no certificates at entry assets/apps/app/AmountUnit/amount_unit.iseq; ignoring!"

The installation error code is -103, but I don't have any idea what that means.

if u can exclude errors in your code (try to install a vanilla app) then i think this might be the same issue i had too a while ago. try a different java sdk version. search the group for it

Thanks for your help, Tom.  It was the java sdk version.  I was using the java sdk 1.7, and I switched to the java sdk 1.6 and it works great.  I think the problem had something to do with the 1.7 version signing utility's default settings not being compatible with Android.

 

Thanks,

Alex
