android hashkey generated for facebook not readable

Question

I am developing a facebook oauth app on android on linux and when i run keytool -exportcert -alias androiddebugkey -keystore ~/.android/debug.keystore | openssl sha1 -binary | openssl base64 for the hash key i get an unreadable text. I tried piping it to a text file, still its unreadable. Please help

Answer 1

Unreadable text! do you mean Ascii characters right? you will have the openssl incorrect path or it doesn't exist. I think in linux Openssl is preinstalled, in Windows i had to install Openssl cause i get that "unreadable text"
