AIR25 - dx tool failed

Hi,

does anybody else have a problem to package android apk-captive-runtime target with AIR25?

On some Window's machines (both 32 and 64 bit) we have nothing telling dx tool failed error while evaluating building command from command line. On the same machine using older AIR it is working fine.

The command and output looks like:

c:\dev\S3-Build>java -jar ..\AIR-Win-SDK\lib\adt.jar -package -target apk-captive-runtime -storetype pkcs12 -keystore ./cert/S3.p12 Build\S3.apk android.xml Data/* -extdir ane/

dx tool failed:

Build failed!

Is there some special requirement for AIR25?

Thanks,

David

Same problem - "dx tool failed" with no further info when targeting Android after updating a project to AIR 25, no problems with AIR 23 (win 10 64bit, FlashDevelop). I (eventually) resolved it by using 64 bit java for packaging android and 32 bit java when targeting iOS - both are java 1.8.0_121

After uninstalling Java I can still create apk files from AIR 24 (without Java installed), am I missing something?

*No errors when packaging for iOS for AIR 25

Seems Animate CC fixed the problem for me, high time to abandon CS6 I guess

Any progress for this problem? Tried AIR 26 beta same problem.

Also tried multiple java versions both 64bit and 32bit.

*Latest Facebook ANE from Distriqt requires AIR 25+

(Win 10 64bit, Flash Pro CS6)

I have the same issue: dx tool failed: Result: 17

After updating to the latest version of AIR SDK 25 I can't package my app. I use Windows 7 x86 and JRE 1.8.111 x86.

The problem is related with the 32 bit version of Java. I installed 64 bit of JRE 1.8.0_111 and it packaged without problems. I suppose 64 bit JRE 1.8.0_121 will also work fine.

I continue with the problem after installing 64 bit of JRE 1.8.0_11. I remember the problem only happens for the builds on android or IOS, Desktop works! I wanted to test the AIR24 SDK version but I can not find it to download, I can only get the AIR25 SDK.

Hey,

We are looking into this, we will keep you updated with the progress. There are two different issues which have been introduced with the java 1.8.0_112 and 1.8.0_121 versions.

1.8.0_112: dx command is failing due to process command execution failure

1.8.0_121: RSA-1024 Certificate issue

We are trying to fix these issues from our end.

Thanks,

Rohit

I have the same issue. Tried the jre/jdk libraries of 1.8.111 an 1.8.121 but cannot succeed. I cannot change the certiface of my apps since they are already published in play store. Any advice?

Cannot do this since the certificate is used on existing apps.

Oldes :

You should uninstall JRE version 1.8.121 and install version 1.8.111

With 1.8.121 we have the following error when compiling on command line :

Unable to load a certificate in this file (our certificate is 1024-RSA)

With version 1.8.11 we have no DX tool issue or certificate issue.

By the way you guys at Adobe should report that bug about 1024-RSA issue with the latest version of Java JRE (1.8.121)

Hey,

Can you please recreate a certificate and try to use it for packaging? It might solve your problem for JRE 1.8.0_121 version as we are able to successfully package apps on this version.

Thanks,
