Unable to read AndroidManifest.xml

I have finished up an Android app and I am attempting to sign it now in release mode. I have generated a keystore, and have updated my built properties to check the appropriate keystore file and alias. Everything compiles just fine, and I am presented with a nice apk file. However, when I attempt to install this on a mobile device I receive a 'Unable to read AndroidManifest.xml' error. According to the Android docs, providing the keystore / alias via the build properties will automatically sign and align the final apk file.

If I rename the apk file to a zip, I can indeed see everything is there. I am unsure of what steps to take to solve this issue. I am doing everything command line, and not using Eclipse. If I install my app via debug release, it works just fine.

Here is the output of ant ([[PASSWORD]] is my password, and MYALIAS is my alias). 'CApp' is the primary a开发者_开发知识库ctivity.
