问题
I've just got my certificate to sign Windows Phone Apps and when I try to run this command:
XapSignTool.exe sign /v C:\Temp\MyApp_Release_AnyCPU.xap
I'm using Visual Studio 2012 Express.
I get an strange behavior:
The following certificate was selected: Issued to: XXXXXX Issued by: Symantec Enterprise Mobile CA for Microsoft Expires: XXXXXX SHA1 hash: XXXXX Done Adding Additional Store Successfully signed: C:\Users\Fernando\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp7E47.tmp\MyApp.dll Number of files successfully Signed: 1 Number of warnings: 0 Number of errors: 0

Can anyone help me? Sounds weird to me...
回答1:
Yes, F.D.F Dev is right, with x86 folder works...
I had the same problem (error 1 with signtool.exe) when trying to sign a 8.1 xap file. In my case, I made it also work with x64 folder by updating Microsoft Silverlight to last version (from 5.1.20513.0 to 5.1.30514.0)
回答2:
It seems I was trying to use signtool.exe from x64 folder. Using the one from x86 folder works ok!
回答3:
I had this working before. After one of the Visual Studio 2015 updates I started getting this error.
I was already using the x86 version of the signing tool.
Installed the latest version of Silverlight from Microsoft: https://www.microsoft.com/silverlight/
And magic it was working. Not sure why.
I got this answer from the following blog: http://www.gep13.co.uk/blog/strange-error-when-signing-xap-file-for-windows-phone-8-1-silverlight-application/
Hope this helps.
