Android Error Building Signed APK: keystore.jks not found for signing config 'externalOverride'

Question

I get this error when I try to Build Signed APK. I recently upgraded to API 23 but Generated APK:s successfully after that. Im confused. Asking for help and advise how to solve

Answer 1

This is a problem that can arise from writing down a "filename" instead of a path, while generating the .jks file. Generate a new one, put it on the Desktop (or any other real path) and re-generate APK.
