Ok im started new thread cause existed was marked as solved.

I cant publish android apk with my old certificate. But i need this cause i cant update my old android games with new created certificates.

Dear Adobe team can you say how much time you need to fix this? Im not alone.

Correct answer Mohanaraj

I installed 2017.1 and can build android app with an old certificate.

What can I do with my p12 certificate if I want to use future versions of Adobe Animate (2017.2+) for making updates to my android application (same sha1 fingerprint)?


Hi,

In case if you want to use Animate CC 2017 with the old 1024 RSA certificate then you can do the following

Prerequisite: Install Animate CC 2015.2 so that you have the older version of Java installed at

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Animate CC 2015.2\jre

Steps:

1. Quit any version of Animate if it is running

2. Copy C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Animate CC 2015.2\jre

3. Rename C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Animate CC 2017\jre folder to say C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Animate CC 2017\orig_jre

4. Paste the jre folder that you have copied in step 2

5. Launch Animate CC 2017 and publish your android app using the older 1024 RSA certifcate

Please note that this is just a brute-force method and not a certified/recommended workflow.

Thanks!

Mohan
