Errors while building APK: Algorithm HmacPBESHA256 not available

Question

I am trying to update an existing Android app, but while generating a Signed APK the following error message appears: Algorithm HmacPBESHA256 not available

I have searched the internet for a solution, including here on StackOverflow, but I cannot find one anywhere. I know that the current keystore uses SHA1withRSA, but how to convert it to HmacPBESHA256 I would not know. Google Play support unfortunately can't help me either, as this question is too technical.

For the sake of clarity here is the full notification:

Execution failed for task ':app:packageRelease'. A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.tasks.PackageAndroidArtifact$IncrementalSplitterRunnable com.android.ide.common.signing.KeytoolException: Failed to read key 1 from store "/Users/KDApps/Documents/KDApps/original-signing-keystore.jks": Integrity check failed: java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: Algorithm HmacPBESHA256 not available

Answer 1

Make sure JDK is installed.

File -> Project Structure -> SDK Location -> Gradle Settings -> change the gradle JDK to the correct one.
