Error when exporting .apk from Eclipse / Android Developer Tools

Question

Every time I try to export the project I get the error:

android keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Key pair not generated, alias already exists

I tried making a new key and using my old key - neither work
I've tried saving it in a different location - even created new folders to ensure there were no conflicts
tried filling out all new credentials when creating the key - same error:

"android keytool error: java.lang.Exception: Key pair not generated, alias already exists"

how do you export the project? never seen that before... but found that: http://stackoverflow.com/q/4920072/944070 — madlymad, Mar 02 '13 at 23:32

This problem is the building .apk not success. May be file name in drawable is invalid..etc..

try Export an unsigned APK and sign it manually in

appManifest.XML > design> export

Fix all errors can occur.

Then you can export apk use key normal.

Hope this help!
