Packaging error: Could not generate timestamp

Sadly I use use Package Assistant Pro to build my native application release builds so I have no way of excluding the timestamp feature from the release. Previously when I had this issue in the past I upgraded my JRE to version 8 and it solved the issue. Does anyone know if there is a JRE version I can use that will allow me to continue packaging my AIR apps?

For me, I just unchecked the Timestamp checkbox

And you don't need to create an AIRI file you just need to change where the timestamp location is: for me it is written in ant.

<target name="AIRDevelopment" description="Create the AIR package" depends="Projectx">

  <exec executable="${AIR_HOME}/bin/adt" failonerror="true" dir="${DEPLOY_DIR}">

  <arg line="-package" />

  <arg line="-storetype pkcs12" />

  <arg line="-keystore ${KEY_HOME}/certificate.p12" />

  <arg line="-storepass 5555" />

  <arg line="-tsa http://sha256timestamp.ws.symantec.com/sha256/timestamp" />

  <arg line="${DEPLOY_DIR}/Projectx.air" />

  <arg line="${SRC_DIR}/Projectx-app.xml" />

  <arg line="Projectx.swf" />

  </exec>

  </target>

I am getting this issue using ant scripts in jenkins and using 1.8.0_121-b13 java. I used the java control panel to disabled tls 1.0 and 1.1. I don't think this a java problem, i think it is the timestamp website.

Is there a fix for this on Flash CS6

I've updated my version of Java,

java version "1.8.0_111"

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_111-b14)

Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.111-b14, mixed mode)

restarted Flash but I still get the same problem.

Do I need to copy one of the Java JAR files somewhere in with the CS6 installation ?

Note. I do have CC2015.2 but I also need to run CS6 on Windows for legacy file format support with contractors.

Ok finally managed to make it work on Flash Builder 64bit on windows 10

1- install Java JDK 1.8

2- Copy the jre folder inside the sdk and replace the jre folder with the copied one inside flash builder installation folder

3- Add this line without the quote "-Djava.util.Arrays.useLegacyMergeSort=true" in the flashbuilder.ini file in the installation directory of flash builder

Now work like a charm to sign application directly in Flash Builder

Hi Vivek, any information for who uses Flash Professional CS5?

Thanks

Oops I found out I had accidentally used 32 bit java (so fails to load), so copied correct latest jdk1.8.0_101 into Flashbuilder/jre and found nasty errors in logs.

So tried more elegant solution by setting window/preferences/installed JRE to jdk1.8.0_101 then attempted to re-export my Release AIR file and now have exact some Certificate timeout issue as original error stated above!

It seems FB4.7/64Bit with java 1.8 64bit does not seem to solve the problem.

My current work around is to turn off Timestamp checkbox in Export Release/Certificate and now exports release fine, but will need to find out more about implications of turning timestamp off are!

I am sure this issue can be sorted out better!

I also tried this copy jre directory solution, it worked for others but for me when I run Flashbuilder 4.7/64Bit (Windows 10/64) I get:

Failed to load the JNI shred library c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 (64Bit)\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll

Any ideas why JNI shared library fails to load?

Thanks
