signed apk Parse error when parsing manifest

问题

When I try to install my signed apk I get a parse error (see logcat). When I install the apk signed with default debug key everything is okay.

this is the logcat output:

08-28 17:12:47.267  23828-23828/com.android.packageinstaller W/PackageInstaller: Parse error when parsing manifest. Discontinuing installation

as it says Parse error when parsing manifest here is my manifest:

    </application>
</manifest>

I see no things there which I should change... My device runs 4.3 even when I change the target sdk version to 18 the error appears.

I use android studio to build and sign my apk.

Is there a way to fix this?

I found the problem.

the error only appeared because I installed it from the cyanogenmod file manager.

I tried to install it from email - worked. I tried to install it from adb - worked.
