we have built a CMS system which lets you change your app online then package the apk on server side, we're using a VPS Ubuntu server to package the apk. the system is all ready and we can successfully install the automatically generated apk on our android devices. all working fine but when we tried to test upload the apk up to Google Play to see if it works, it throws the following error message: "The file you uploaded is not a valid APK file. Please check it and try again."
that's weird because when I tried to upload the very same app which has been packaged locally, it uploads just fine! only the one that has been generated on the server, does not work! as the error message does not give me any helpful diagnose tips, I tried the following... with no luck! at first I thought it must be a problem with the certification, so I used the very same certificate I had created locally and then tried to package the app with that cert file on the server. nope that did not help! then I used the apktool to decompile the two apps and see if there's anything different about them, but they are mainly the same and just their package name are different obviously! so, I'm running out of options and I have no idea where else to look! I really appreciate your help as my team and I have been working on this project for 7 months and we can't wait to launch the project.
