Import Xamarin Keystore - System.AggregateException

I have a .pfx file that I used to generated a keystore file using the following command:

keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore TestCodeSign.pfx -srcstoretype pkcs12

Keytool came back and said 'The JKS keystore uses a proprietary format. It is recommended to migrate to PKCS12 which is an industry standard format..."

So I ran the suggested command:

keytool -importkeystore -srckeystore C:\Users\USERNAME\.keystore -destkeystore C:\Users\USERNAME\.keystore -deststoretype pkcs12

I now have the backed up copy, '.old' and the new .keystore file.

In Visual Studio, I create an archive for the release version of my app. Then I click Distribute->Google Play and then hit Import to locate the .keystore file.

enter image description here

But when I import, I get a useless error. I checked the Xamarin.Diagnostics output, I can see another error:

[E:keytool]:              ImportKey - System.AggregateException: One or more errors occurred. ---> Xamarin.AndroidTools.AndroidSdkToolException: Importing keystore C:\\Temp\\TestCodeSign.keystore to C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\AppData\\Local\\Xamarin\\Mono for Android\\Keystore\\A\\A.keystore...

And that is it. How can I import an existing pfx file into a keystore and then use that keystore to sign the application for distribution to Google Play?

I generate a .keytore file to test. When I import with the wrong password or alias, it would throw the same error. Please check your password and alias. enter image description here

If you do not make sure about the alias and password, you could create a new .ketstore file to import for test.

For more details about generate a .keystore file, please refer to the MS docs. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/android/deploy-test/signing/?tabs=windows
