Enter keystore password:
Which indicates that the keytool on path can access the keystore.

I had the same issue with different versions of keytool:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_51\bin\keytool
but the same keystore file worked fine with
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_201\bin\keytool"
I know it is an old thread but have lost a lot of hours figuring this out... :D

I had spent lot of time on this and finally This worked for me -
go to file -> project structure -> SDK Location -> Gradle Settings -> Change Gradle JDK -> from 1.8 to 11
Just change Gradle JDK -> from 1.8 to 11 then rebuild the project and try again
for me that issue happened because i generated .jks file on my laptop with 1.8.0_251 and i copied it on server witch had java 1.8.0_45 and when I used that .jks file in my code i got java.io.IOException: Invalid Keystore format.
to solve this issue i generated .jks file directly on the server instead of copy there from my laptop which had different java version.
I think the keystore file you want to use has a different or unsupported format in respect to your Java version. Could you post some more info of your task?
In general, to solve this issue you might need to recreate the whole keystore (using some other JDK version for example). In export-import the keys between the old and the new one - if you manage to open the old one somewhere else.
If it is simply an unsupported version, try the BouncyCastle crypto provider for example (although I'm not sure If it adds support to Java for more keystore types?).
Edit: I looked at the feature spec of BC.
You can generate the debug keystore by running this command in the android/app/ directory:
keytool -genkey -v -keystore debug.keystore -storepass android -alias androiddebugkey -keypass android -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000
Or just download from official template https://raw.githubusercontent.com/facebook/react-native/master/template/android/app/debug.keystore

I ran into the problem with openJDK on ubuntu, had to install Oracle JDK to get it working.
You can follow this guide on google sites to do that.
Same issue here, I have Oracle JDK installed and my keystore was created using that, but in the jceks format
keytool -importkeystore -destkeystore client.keystore \
-srckeystore redislabs_user.p12 -srcstoretype pkcs12 \
-deststoretype jceks -alias client-cert
I deleted the -deststoretype jceks option and it worked fine :)
In my case, I was running the project with Java version 1.8. and the Keystore.jks file that I generated from java 16.
I changed my project java version to 16 and the error goes away.
Please check the JDK version with which you are generating the keystore and the JDK version for your project are the same or not. If they are different, either generate the keystore from the same JDK on which your current project is running or change the project JDK.
I came across this issue while running keytool command. There is an other way to run the keytool command, mentioned here: https://developers.google.com/android/guides/client-auth using gradlew command.
When I ran in debug mode ./gradlew signingReport --debug got to know that gradle plugin required java 11 and my local has java8. Downloaded java11 and updated Path. Ran the command (Make sure you open a new terminal so that java path is reflected to 11). Works like a charm !!!
It may be necessary to run cmd as administrator.
the paths to specify the .jks file must be / and not \.
If they open the cmd with the path where the .jks file is located, they only put in the /key.jks path
I had problem with "Invalid Keystore format" too. All this answers can't helped me.
In my case problem was on Mac OS. JAVA_HOME=jdk1.8 not pulled from .zschrc, so I think that generate certs on it, but default was jdk11. I changed it to jdk1.8 with "jenv" and generate certs. How it works.
You can download jenv by brew. And some commands that I used
jenv versions
to check all versions of JDK
jenv global JDK
to set wanted jdk
java -version
to check it
This worked for me (Switched to JDK 11, instead of 8)
Previous JAVA Path "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_202\bin"
Changed Path to "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-11.0.14\bin"
Upgrade your JVM version - I moved from Java 8 to java 17 and it was fixed.
From Oracle:
In Java 8u301 release, a new fix went in to upgrade the default PKCS12 encryption algorithm, as noted in Java 8u301 release notes at https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/8all-relnotes.html#R180_301
➜ Upgraded the Default PKCS12 Encryption Algorithms
The default encryption algorithms used in a PKCS #12 keystore have been updated. The new algorithms are based on AES-256 and SHA-256 and are stronger than the old algorithms that were based on RC2, DESede, and SHA-1. See the security properties starting with keystore.pkcs12 in the java.security file for detailed information.
For compatibility, a new system property named keystore.pkcs12.legacy is defined that will revert the algorithms to use the older, weaker algorithms. There is no value defined for this property.
