Facebook Android SDK Invalid_key [duplicate]

Answer 1

I have had the same problem and finally I found the solution : Use Cygwin for Windows users. The result from Windows is different from linux/iOS. So install Cygwin, it's very easy and you will also need cygwin if you want to work with NDK. Run the command listed above copy the output and it will work.

Answer 2

Actually this is the problem in facebook sdk if you uninstall the com.facebook.katana then your application will work perfectly fine. I don't have a permanent solution for this problem but temporarily it will work

Answer 3

I was having this same problem and I think many others are running into the same thing that I was. The key store on windows is under the user directory by default e.g. C:\Users\User Name.android\

It failed for me because I was entering the full path and it had a space (" ") in folder that is named after the user. If you put quotes around the path it will likely work, and you should be prompted for the keystore password.

e.g. keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "C:\Users\User Name.android" | openssl sha1 -binary | openssl base64

Answer 4

I'm using windows 7 and fix problem using :

keytool -export -alias androiddebugkey -keystore "[PATH]\debug.keystore" -storepass android -keypass android | openssl sha1 -binary | openssl enc -a -e

You can download OpenSSL for Windows

Answer 5

i fix the bug with this:

if you add to authorize line this code

Facebook.FORCE_DIALOG_AUTH

mFacebook.authorize(MundialRugby2011Activity.this, 
new String[] {"publish_stream", "read_stream",                             
    "offline_access"},Facebook.FORCE_DIALOG_AUTH, new LoginDialogListener());

Answer 6

Been having problems with this all day, I used cmd prompt to generate the key and it worked after I defined the path of openssl and keytool in the windows system settings.

I set up the Facebook application in eclipse and it was working fine on the AVD, however the same program causes the Facebook error invalid key when installed on my nexus s.

I've come to the conclusion that the device has its own keys and cannot use those in the keystore.
