Whats the keystore file pls? for signing config release

[sadraNOORME]

I have gotten the following error when running the app:
Error:Execution failed for task ':app:validateReleaseSigning'.

Keystore file C:\xampp\htdocs\quran_android-2.7.2\app\path\to\key not found for signing config 'release'.

Kindly help what the key is,,

Much appreciate

please build the debug flavor - ./gradlew assembleMadaniDebug from the command line, or in Android Studio, change the build target to debug, this way you won't need the keystore.

@ahmedre thanks, i did run it through the cmd and gotten successfully built
but stil when running like the SearchActivity i get the keystore issue again

any idea pls?!

Thankss ahead

on the very right side of the Android Studio window is a button called "build variants" - make sure all of them are set to debug and not release - the signing one seems to be building beta, not debug, so please change to debug and it will work.
