i've got a little problem while generating my SHA1 for an app i'm developing, (please understand i'm really new to android developement).
I'm using ECLIPSE on win 7, and the .android/debug.keystore file seems to be correctly generated... the point is: when i navigate inside c:\Users\myUser.android via windows console i try to run the file this way:
c:\Users\myUser\.android>debug.keystore
When i press submit,it open the "impossible open the file" window, and it asks me to select a program, local or on internet, to be able to run the file..
I know it's quite simple operation, but i'm gettin mad on it... What am i doing wrong?
Thank you all
Solved! The answer of prosper was actually the right one, i should execute the keytool command inside the JDK folder that contains the keytool... Many thanks to everyone
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_09\bin>keytool -list -v -keystore "C:\Users\your_user_name\.android\debug.keystore" -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
More precisely it would be like this
keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\your_account_name.android\debug.keystore | C:\OpenSSL\bin\openssl sha1 -binary | C:\OpenSSL\bin\openssl base64
You will have to download OpeSSL and extract in a folder, mine is C:\OperSSL
Execute this code inside the JDK bin folder

I tried to get my SHA-1 key by using the terminal but I don't know what problem is there, can anyone help me with this? I know how to get sha-1 key in android studio by signing report, but I want to generate in terminal.
Here is what I got when I run the command, I tried this answer but got nothing: how to get sha1 of android app in Vs code
above is my cmd. It is saying that it is an illegal option.
I have my Java bin directory here C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-14.0.2\bin and debug.keystore here: C:\Users\91819\.android
Put a space between "C:\Users\91819\.android\debug.keystore" and -alias
open the Project folder in VS code
Open the Terminal
Enter the following cmd and enter
keytool -list -v -keystore "C:\Users\yourusernamehere\.android\debug.keystore" -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
Replace yourusernamehere to your windows user name
you will get the SHA1 and other details.
So I am trying to do a map application on android.
I wrote this code on my mac os terminal to create Certificate fingerprint
keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
code generate:
(MD5): C9:C1:40:66:40:07:D0:8C:FF:44:A3:7D:F4:73:57:4B
I don't know why but code generate MD5 not SHA-1
and I understand I need 20 character finger print but my terminal generated 16 character.
if my fingerprint is wrong how can I create true one. If its true than how can I create Api key for map from developer.google.com
If do you have any clue please help. Thanks
Add -v in the end of the keytool command that you gave. It might look something like this.
keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android -v
UPDATE:
I answered somewhat related problem like this before, you might get an idea from it if my answer is not enough for you. :)
How to/Error in declaring google-play-services-component
Install plug in eclipse
http://keytool.sourceforge.net/update
Go to eclipse -> Help -> Install new software paste above link
and install it
and then open keytool in ecipse open keystore option will be provided
it will give you SHA1 finger print.
(keytool window will be opened beside errorlog and logcat
click drop down and then androiddebugkey click it you will have all the info there)
In android I have try to obtain a google apikey version 2 ,
I tried to obtain the sha 1 key as follows keytool -list -v -keystore "C:\Users\sapu.android\debug.keystore" -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android but in command prompt keytool is not recogenize as internal or external command how can I overcome this
Probably this happens because the Java home is not in your Path. Add the full path to the jdk folder to the Path variable and you'll be fine.
Where is the command keytool stored? Is it in your path? If not, then you need to give the full path.
More instructions can be found at this earlier question
When obtaining my md5 fingerprint for an Android app I have encountered problems when entering the keystore command on both the cmd and jdk bin prompt:
keystore is an invalid command
In the cmd I got this error,which I researched and found that it means my keystore path is incorrect.So I double checked my path and it was correct and found a tutorial explaining to enter the same command through the jdk bin cmd prompt:
Access denied
key store address is:
C:\Users\Brian\.android\debug.keystore
The command I'm using is as follows:
keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\Brian\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
What are you trying to obtain.
Maby this answer can help

I see what your problem is, you are trying to obtain a debug key but you specify a path.
but try to just copy paste this commnad without modifying it.
keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore | openssl sha1 -binary | openssl base64
it worked for me to obtain my debug key for a facebook app.
I could be wrong about this but I think this should work
Edit
Did some digging, the keytool comes with the java jdk. like commonsware answerd here
so do you have the JDK or the SDK installed is my next question.
Edit (another)
to answer you question in the comment take a look here.

finale update
this is the last update for this particular answer.
Browse to the JDK folder and execute the command from that directory.
kind regards
I'm trying to generate the MD5 fingerprint from the debug.keystore file using keytool.exe in my JDK so I can use Google Maps in my Android project.
I've located the keystore file and have moved it into C:\android just to make things easier.
Then in a command prompt I type
c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_13\bin>keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "C:\android\debug.keystore" -storepass android -keypass android
And I keep getting the error:
keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Keystore file does not exist: C:\android\debug.keystore
I've also tried entering the keystore in from its original location rather than moving to c:\android but I still get the same error.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?
Also, is there any other way to get this MD5 fingerprint? Some program maybe?
to generate debug.keystore file
in Eclipse/ADT, go to Windows > Preferences > Android > Build
once it is generated use ur command(c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_13\bin>keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "C:\android\debug.keystore" -storepass android -keypass android) to generate MD5.
this is used to generate api key for google map.
You should execute the keytools from c:\Program Files (x86)\java\jre6\bin>
And here execute the keytool command without "\"
keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\<you_user_name>\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
It will work!
You might try adding c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_13\bin to your PATH, then running the keytool command from the C:\android directory. That's what I do (more or less -- I have JDK6 and a different directory), and it works fine.
There are times when your .android folder is present in the C:\Documents and Settings path. Often, because of the spaces in Documents and Settings, the command will not run properly.
It's better if you just create a test folder under C: and put your debug.keystore file in this folder. Then give the path as:
keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "C:\test\debug.keystore" -storepass android -keypass android
This works. If somebody is facing issues and getting an error on this command, you can try your luck with this.
I had the same message and when checking the C:\user.android directory could see that the debug.keystore file was not present. As this was the first time I'd tried an android project on this machine, there had been no previous builds. I created and ran the ubiquitous 'Hello World' project and debug.keystore was instantly created. I then ran keytool and the MD5 appeared fine
To generate the debug.keystore, you have to run any app at least one time. Just create and run any simple "Hello World" android app to generate it.
Create Hello World android App
Run Hello World android app
keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Keystore file does not exist: C:\android\debug.keystore
Tells me that file isn't there like you think it is.
Also, if you are using the Eclipse Android tools, you can export a signed APK file via Eclipse, which might be easier for you than using the command line tools.
First i wentto the bin directory and then
get where your debug.key is ..mainly at the .android and it worked like a charm
where androiddebugkey is the name you give
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_66\bin>keytool -exportcert -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\001557\.android\debug.keystore
