Although I am using the same certificate and keystore, I am not able to upload an upgrade of my application to the Android Market. The key is the same but may not appear to be since I changed platforms from PC to Mac. It is also possible that this is my mistake rather than a bug. Although the keystore is obviously named and the password is correct, I might have created and used some other key... It has been months since I uploaded the last version of the app. Is there anything I can do to override the certificate errors I am hitting when I use the 'upload upgrade' link?
The error is "The apk must be signed with at least one certificate in common with the previous version." To try and get around this, I unpublished, put in the updated apk, got the same error, still no go. I unpublished and pushed out a refactored apk. No go. I finally refactored to change the package name which allows me to upload the upgrade as a new application. Of course, the old app is still in place and I can't migrate existing users to give them the upgrade. Can I solve this problem? If not, the Market is going to be a mess of many versions of the same applications. (it already is messed up this way, no? :) Of course I like the added security of encryption and certificates so that nobody can hack my app and upload malicious code under my name. Today the protection is hampering my efforts, today it is inflexible. Can I get a one time work-around for the certificate requirement so that an upgrade will be published without the same certificate? Any feedback will be appreciated.
