Error while running zipalign

android, eclipse, export, package

Solution

I was getting the same error message. Drove me crazy until i found that my destination path was invalid.

Zipalign will give you that error even if the apk is perfectly valid, but

- the path to the apk is invalid

- the destination is invalid or does not exists

- the permissions are invalid (apk is locked by other program)

Problem

I got this error when trying to export a signed apk in Eclipse Error while running zipalign: Unable to open as zip archive I have run the Help->Check for Updates to make sure the latest update is installed and SDK tools also up to date.
