Facebook Android Generate Key Hash

Question

Trying to create an android app with Facebook integration, I've gotten to the part in the docs where you have to generate a key hash file, it specifies to run the following code

keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore 
| openssl sha1 -binary
| openssl base64

When I run this in my terminal I get an error for Keystore tampered with or password was incorrect,

I just want to generate my Key Hash

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Answer 1

In order to generate key hash you need to follow some easy steps.

1) Download Openssl from: here.

2) Make a openssl folder in C drive

3) Extract Zip files into this openssl folder created in C Drive.

4) Copy the File debug.keystore from .android folder in my case (C:\Users\SYSTEM.android) and paste into JDK bin Folder in my case (C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_05\bin)

5) Open command prompt and give the path of JDK Bin folder in my case (C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_05\bin).

6) Copy the following code and hit enter

keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore debug.keystore > c:\openssl\bin\debug.txt

7) Now you need to enter password, Password = android.

8) If you see in openssl Bin folder, you will get a file with the name of debug.txt

9) Now either you can restart command prompt or work with existing command prompt

10) get back to C drive and give the path of openssl Bin folder

11) copy the following code and paste

openssl sha1 -binary debug.txt > debug_sha.txt

12) you will get debug_sha.txt in openssl bin folder

13) Again copy following code and paste

openssl base64 -in debug_sha.txt > debug_base64.txt

14) you will get debug_base64.txt in openssl bin folder

15) open debug_base64.txt file Here is your Key hash.
