So... I need to get a SHA1 key. I'm not a Java fan, so I'm creating my app in Cordova but I need the SHA1 to register it in Google's Developer Console. Does someone know where it is? I tried importing the project in Android studio but still couldn't find anything...
For Windows you have to create it using command prompt.First go to your java bin directory via the cmd like C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_71\bin,then type
keytool -list -v -keystore c:\users\your_user_name\.android\debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
For Mac users go to terminal ,then type
keytool -list -v -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
I'm trying to get the SHA1 fingerprint so I can get an Google API key.
Im in the following directory:
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_20.jdk/Contents/Home/bin
Then I execute the command from the google site :
keytool -list -v -keystore mystore.keystore
But it gives this error:
keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Keystore file does not exist: mystore.keystore
java.lang.Exception: Keystore file does not exist: mystore.keystore
at sun.security.tools.keytool.Main.doCommands(Main.java:742)
at sun.security.tools.keytool.Main.run(Main.java:340)
at sun.security.tools.keytool.Main.main(Main.java:333)
I followed tutorials but I can't get it to work!
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?
BTW: I'm using a Macbook Pro with Xamarin Studio 5.5.2.
Linux & Mac command
keytool -list -v -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
Will give you SHA1, SHA256, MD5 for default debug key. And it can be used for developing and debugging with google play services.
For publication certificate just follow https://developer.android.com/studio/publish/app-signing.html
You said you are running the command from...
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_20.jdk/Contents/Home/bin
Is your keystore file in that directory as well? If not then you need to specify the path to the keystore file, e.g.
keytool -list -v -keystore ~/somefolder/mystore.keystore
The keystore used should be the one used to sign the app. For Xamarin debug builds this will be the debug keystore located at /Users/[USERNAME]/.local/share/Xamarin/Mono\ for\ Android/debug.keystore. The command on OSX for this would be...
keytool -list -v -keystore /Users/[USERNAME]/.local/share/Xamarin/Mono\ for\ Android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
Or on Windows 7
keytool -list -v -keystore C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Xamarin\Mono for Android\debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
I faced the same issue, but resolved via following command:
keytool -exportcert -keystore C:\Users\<USERNAME>\.android\debug.keystore -list -v
OS: Windows 7
I have windows 10, I went to the route
c:/Users/usuario/.android/
Inside directory, execute command:
keytool -exportcert -keystore debug.keystore -list -v
Must generate fingerprint:
SHA-1: 73:BE:1A:.......................
MDO: 73:BE:A1.........................
SHA-256: 3B:B8:98:...................
Please provide the complete path of debug.keystore.
Example: C:/Users/myusername/.android/debug.keystore instead of ~/.android/debug.keystore
In my case the debug.keystore is generated after the first run of the app on Android Studio
I had the same issue.
My error was
keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Keystore file does not exist:/Users/[USER_NAME]/.android/debug.keystore java.lang.Exception: Keystore
file does not exist: /Users/[USER_NAME]/.android/debug.keystore
at java.base/sun.security.tools.keytool.Main.doCommands(Main.java:910)
at java.base/sun.security.tools.keytool.Main.run(Main.java:416)
at java.base/sun.security.tools.keytool.Main.main(Main.java:409)
I checked my /Users/[USER_NAME]/.android/ directory and I couldn't find debug.keystore file there.
Reason:
I used VSCODE and I did run my application only for iOS through iOS Simulator.
Solution:
I opened Android Studio and run my application for android with Android Emulator.
Then I got debug.keystore file in my .android/ directory.
Then I tried command below again:
keytool -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore
And it runs without any error.
I hope it helps you.
I had the same error in Windows 10 as well. But sorted it and finally got SHA-1 Key.
I followed these steps
1.Open C drive and follow this path C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_201\bin .
2.Inside bin folder open CMD and run command keytool -exportcert -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:/Users/Username/.android/debug.keystore . (Replace Username with your username).
3.Enter password as android .
Linux or Mac or Windows, use complete path
Mac:
keytool -list -v -keystore /Users/username/.android/debug.keystore
-alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
Linux (Ubuntu in my case):
keytool -list -v -keystore /home/username/.android/debug.keystore
-alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
Windows:
keytool -list -v -keystore C:\Users\username\.android\debug.keystore
-alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
Hope it work for you!
I found this guide from teamtreehouse forum. hope it'll help you.
1) Open Command Prompt by pressing Start+R and typing cmd.exe.
2) Using Windows Explorer, find where your JDK directory is located (Usually Program Files >> Java) and copy the path.
3) In Command Prompt, type cd followed by the directory of your JDK’s bin directory. e.g: cd C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_25\bin is the command I use (Yours may vary).
4) Using Windows Explorer, find where your .android directory is located (Usually under Users >> [YOUR WINDOWS USERNAME]) and copy the path.
5) Now, use this command below:
keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore[PATH_TO_.ANDROID_DIRECTORY] -list -v
Replacing [PATH_TO_.ANDROID_DIRECTORY] with the path you copied. Note that you should be running this command in terminal/command prompt in your JDK’s bin directory (You did this in Step 3).
Mine is C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_121\bin>keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\HoSiLuan\.android\debug.keystore -list -v
Remember to use C:\Users\HoSiLuan\.android\debug.keystore instead of ~/.android\debug.keystore. I still got the error when type this shorten way.
You should then be prompted with the password as normal which you can enter (The password is android) . After that, you’ll see the list of certificates printed to the screen.
If you are on Windows open command prompt and RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR then paste the line keytool -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore %USERPROFILE%\.android\debug.keystore. That should work, it worked for me
I lived same problem on Windows 10 and solved that problem with writing below command:
keytool -list -keystore debug.keystore
I think with some other commands java couldn't find debug.keystore file but interestingly with that command it works for me.
I had the same Error
am using ubuntu 18.04
Solution:
Open terminal and navigate to /home/{$user}/.android
Then run the command
keytool -list -v \ -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore
You will be prompted to enter a keystore password enter android
Hope this helps.
Below command should work:
keytool -list -v -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
So I have found the solution.
On Windows, open cmd from start menu and write cd C:\Users\put_here_your_username\.android and then write
keytool -list -v -keystore ".\debug.keystore" -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
last update for Mac & Ubuntu
keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -list -v
I faced the same problem, I found that I had .android folder inside another .android folder. Make sure to find the right path of debug.keystore file on your system
I used this command and it worked
keytool -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\User.android.android\debug.keystore
keytool -list -v -keystore C:\Users\%USERNAME%\.android\debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
Try this to get resolve from the problem
If you are on Windows open command prompt and then Run it as an administration then paste this: keytool -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore %USERPROFILE%.android\debug.keystore
use password : android
then you will get SHA-1 and SHA-256 this worked smoothly for me.
Install keytool on your system
Keytool is included as part of the Java runtime. So by installing Java, you'll also have keytool in your system.
To install Java, visit the JAVA SE Downloads page. Then, select the JDK Download link.
After that, add the keytool folder to your system %PATH% (on Windows). In order to run keytool from the command line, you need to add it to your system PATH. This step is required on Windows only.
Finally, run this command in a terminal, and don't forget to change the user name to your own:
keytool -list -v -keystore "c:\users\your_user_name\.android\debug.keystore" -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
Open CMD and navigate to Java bin folder for example:
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_341\bin
Once you stand here then paste this:
keytool -exportcert -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:/Users/*YOUR_PC_USERNAME*/.android/debug.keystore
Do not forget to change to your own PC username marked with * YOUR_PC_USERNAME *
Double check that you are putting the correct address in my case I had two typos and that fixed it.
I had c:User instead of C:\Users\
Find your debug.keystore file by searching (usually it is in .android) and then use this
keytool -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "C:\Users\u_name\ .android\debug.keystore"
Use your own full path name not copy paste from anywhere.
It solved mine and this or some else solution will solve yours too😄.
just put this given command in your package.json file and hit run yarn sha-keys
"sha-keys": "keytool -list -v -keystore ./android/App/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android",
I am following this tutorial here:
http://www.vogella.com/articles/AndroidGoogleMaps/article.html
On my mac and am not sure how to accomplish this step to get my sha-1:
Update:
I realized I already have a key cause I build and sign my project. Trying to get the SHA-1 is proving difficult with the terminal on my mac:
Mikes-MacBook-Air:beerPortfolio Mike$ keytool -list -v -alias androiddebugkey \ -keystore bp_key.keystore \ -storepass android -keypass android
keytool error: java.lang.RuntimeException: Usage error, -keystore is not a legal command

Mikes-MacBook-Air:beerPortfolio Mike$
keytool -list -v -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore -alias androiddebugkey -storepass android -keypass android
The above command worked for me. You can change your keystore path if it is in another location.
Here is the Link
I have windows 7 and it seems that I can't get api key ! I've tried so much !
I opened the cmd and entered:
keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore D:\avd\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
and yet it says to me:
'keytool' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable
program or batch file.
I've also tried like that:
"C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07\bin\java.exe" keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore D:\avd\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
and it says:
Could not find or load main class keytool
hope someone can help me I am very Desperate for an answer !
The dollar sign is not part of what you need to paste into your terminal. You should start with keytool on forward. In the example the dollar sign is showing the beginning of the prompt (which is how it looks on Unix/Mac terminals).
keytool is an executable that is part of the Java SDK. The location of the bin file must either be added to your terminal's path or you have to run it using the full path to the file. Typically, on Windows the Java binaries are located at C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07\bin or something similar. You were close with your second guess in this case, but keytool is not a command you pass to java.exe...it is an executable itself in the same directory.
HTH
Try this
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_07\bin\keytool -v -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore D:\avd\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
or
Just copy the debug.keystore file to the same folder as keytool and execute the below in command prompt
keytool -v -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore D:\avd\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
Those are the steps through the Command Prompt that worked for me :
cd C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_05\bin keytool -list -alias
androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\ {username}.android\debug.keystore
-storepass android -keypass android
hi when i try to run this command bin/keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
i got the error java.lang.Exception Keystore file doesnot exist :debug.keyStore
actually i am trying to get googlemaps key for android never used keytool command.
can any one help how to remove this error
The problem is that the keytool does not know where to look for the keystore file.
If you're on Windows 7 / Vista, try:
keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore c:\users\your-user-name\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
(replace your-user-name with your actual user name)
For Windows XP, try:
keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keystore c:\documents and settings\your-user-name\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
If V2 map to generate SHA key use this command. use for releasing key means for testing.
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_20\bin>keytool.exe -list -v -alias androiddebugkey -keystore C:\Users\DON\.android\debug.keystore -storepass android -keypass android
Don is usersystem name
If you want app live means for development.
eclipse->Window ->Preferences ->Android ->Build -> now you get the sha key
Finally i solve the problem and the correct working script / Command is below:
Please note the double quotes where they are placed please use as it is as this is the correct method. and off course please change the user name and as for the different versions of windows you people will have to change it accordingly. Please feel free to ask if you people have any questions.
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_25\bin>keytool -list -alias androiddebugkey -keys
tore "c:\documents and settings\user\.android\debug.keystore" -storepass android
-keypass android
