Can't create APK file - Error AMM000

[joaquim66]

Description

Created a normal .net maui application, it was so normal that it does nothing: is the regular Hello World application automaticaly generated when you create your first .net maui application. Than run it on the emulator: OK; Than prepare to compile it an publish to install on my mobile phone. The only things i changed in project properties was Android Manifest:

• Assigned a name to the app and a name to the package Than generated a keystore file with the keytool as explained here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/android/deployment/publish-cli?view=net-maui-7.0 The final command was: "keytool -genkey -v -keystore gdbolacesto.keystore -alias gdbkey -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000" The command asked me for a password and some data like name, city, country, ... The file was created sucessfuly. Than, back to project properties , in "Android signing": Set true to Sign the app, Than selected the keystore file in the key repository, filled in the password i gave when creating keystore, filled in the alias for the key, didn't fill any password for the alias because the keystore generator didn't ask me for none). Than i select compile soluction, wait for a moment, and in the end: Just a error string: AMM000, no explanation, no nothing... After this i can't run it on the emulator anymore (get the same error).

After some googling found a answer, in stack overflow, to some case smiliar to mine, saying "As a consequence of adding the package name via the options of the project, the AndroidManifest.xml package attribute was updated, wich is what is expected, but there was also a tag that was being added, wich was unwanted. The tag was the following:

<uses-sdk />

It would be enough to remove this line. I've done so and afterwards the AMM000 error disapears.
