Overview

The error message "DerInputStream.getLength(): lengthTag=107, too big" in the context of Android Studio typically indicates an issue with certificates or keystore files. This error is often related to SSL/TLS certificate handling when connecting to a secure server.

Here are some steps to troubleshoot and resolve this error:

Check the Keystore File

Make sure you have the correct keystore file and that it's properly configured in your Android Studio project. Check the keystore file's location and ensure that you are referencing it correctly in your project settings.

Verify the Certificate

If you're connecting to a remote server with SSL/TLS, ensure that the SSL/TLS certificate used by the server is valid and not expired. If the certificate is invalid, you may encounter this error.

Check Dependencies

Review your project's dependencies, especially any libraries or packages related to SSL/TLS or certificate handling. Ensure that you are using the correct versions and configurations.

SSL/TLS Configuration

If you are working with SSL/TLS connections in your Android app, ensure that your SSL/TLS configuration is correct. This includes specifying the keystore and truststore, as well as setting up the appropriate protocols and cipher suites.

Network Security Configuration

If you are targeting Android 9 (API level 28) or higher, make sure that you have defined a Network Security Configuration file in your project's resources. This file specifies the security requirements for network connections. Ensure that it's correctly configured.

Check Server Settings

If you are connecting to a remote server, make sure the server's SSL/TLS configuration is correct. Verify that the server's certificate chain is valid and properly configured.

Debug SSL/TLS Connections

You can use tools like Wireshark or Android's Network Profiler to capture and analyze network traffic. This can help you identify any issues with SSL/TLS negotiations.

Update Android Studio and Libraries

Ensure that you are using the latest version of Android Studio and that your project's libraries and dependencies are up-to-date. Sometimes, updating to newer versions can resolve compatibility issues.

Review Code and Configuration

Double-check your code and configuration files (e.g., Gradle build files, XML resource files) for any errors or inconsistencies related to SSL/TLS settings.

Execution failed for task ':app:packageDebug'.
> A failure occurred while executing com.android.build.gradle.tasks.PackageAndroidArtifact$IncrementalSplitterRunnable
  > com.android.ide.common.signing.KeytoolException: Failed to read key upload from store "/Users/{name}/Apps/Android-keys/{project}/private_key.pepk": DerInputStream.getLength(): lengthTag=107, too big.

The .pepk (Private Encrypted Private Key) error

"DerInputStream.getLength(): lengthTag=107, too big" error, is related to the signing of your Android app using a private key stored in a ".pepk" (Private Encrypted Private Key) file. This error typically indicates an issue with the private key file or its format.

Check the Private Key File

Verify that the private key file at "/Users/{name}/Apps/Android-keys/{project}/private_key.pepk" exists and is accessible. Ensure that the file is not corrupted.

Private Key Password

If the private key file is encrypted, make sure you have the correct password for it. You may need to enter the password during the signing process.

Key Alias and Password

Confirm that you are specifying the correct key alias and password in your project's Gradle configuration (usually in the "build.gradle" file). The key alias and password must match the information associated with the private key.

Check for Key Changes

If you recently generated a new private key or made changes to your signing configuration, ensure that all references to the private key in your project are up to date.

Generate a New Private Key (if necessary)

If you suspect that the private key file is corrupted or there are issues with it, consider generating a new private key and updating your signing configuration accordingly. Make sure to securely store the new private key and its password.

Update Android Gradle Plugin

Ensure that you are using the latest version of the Android Gradle Plugin in your project. Gradle Plugin updates sometimes include fixes and improvements related to signing.

In your project's "build.gradle" file, update the Android Gradle Plugin version to the latest version:

buildscript {
   dependencies {
       classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:your_latest_version_here'
   }
}

Rebuild the Project

After making changes to your signing configuration or Gradle files, clean and rebuild your project in Android Studio.

Check File Permissions

Ensure that you have the necessary read permissions for the private key file and write permissions for the app's output directory.

File Path Issues

Double-check that the file path to your private key file is correct and does not contain any special characters or spaces that could cause issues.

Backup Private Key

Always create a backup of your private key and store it in a secure location. Losing access to your private key can lead to difficulties in updating and publishing your app.

Using above steps and a few more different approaches

Check the Private Key File

To check the file exists, use

test -f ../../Android-keys/{project}/private_key.pepk && echo "$FILE exists."
OR
[ -f ../../Android-keys/{project}/private_key.pepk ] && echo "$FILE exists."

Response

exists.

If you wanted to check a directory exists, then you would use

[ -d ../../Android-keys/{project} ] && echo "$FILE is a directory."

Private Key Password

Handy to review.

Key Alias and Password

Check the key alias and password in your project's Gradle configuration - usually in the "build.gradle" file.

Check for Key Changes

Cross check that all references to the private key in your project are up to date.

Update Android Gradle Plugin

In the build.gradle file, check the version.  As I'm using Capacitor 4, Gradle cannot be above version 8.  

buildscript {
    
    repositories {
        google()
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:7.4.2'

Change the gradle version

THe current version gradle being used in Android Studio was 7.5.x, and has now been updated to 8.0.x

build file '/Users/{name}/Apps/{project}/android/app/build.gradle' line: 18
A problem occurred evaluating project ':app'.
> Parameter specified as non-null is null: method com.android.build.gradle.internal.dsl.BaseAppModuleExtension.compileSdkVersion, parameter version

The issue was with the variable compileSdkVersion

../
    compileSdkVersion compileSdkVersion
    defaultConfig {
    /..

To resolve this specific error, replace compileSdkVersion (which isn't defined) with rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion

../
    compileSdkVersion rootProject.ext.compileSdkVersion
    defaultConfig {
    /..

Once the change had been made, run Build > Clean Project

However, the error remained

DerInputStream.getLength(): lengthTag=107, too big.
