Android Question The Android App Bundle was not signed

Solution
1. Check Tools - Private Sign Key. Look for the public key algorithm. If it isn't an old key then it should show 2048-bit RSA key.
2. Assuming that this is the case, add this line:
B4X:
#SignKeyAlgorithm: -digestalg SHA-256 -sigalg SHA256withRSA

3. If you are using an old key then submit an APK instead of AAB. There are no advantages for AABs.

Sergio Haurat,

Yes understandably we all can compile and got the app signed in B4A. But when we upload the .aab, Google Play Console says :
'The Android App Bundle was not signed.'

It looks like you can upload an APK even if you previously uploaded an AAB. Try it as a temporary solution.
I tried it already and it is not possible. At least i got an error when i tried to upload an apk instead of aab

Having the same problem. Probably a Google Play error. I have always loaded .aab files, I tried to upload the .apk but it is not accepted.
