Remove debug.keystore from your user android directory

Windows

  1. Delete debug.keystore located in C:\Documents and Settings\\[user]\.android or C:\Users\[username]\.android
  2. Clean and build your project.

Mac & Linux

  1. Delete debug.keystore located in ~/.android/debug.keystore
  2. Clean and build your porject.

If you don't know where your debug.keystore ? In Eclipse select Windows -> Preferences -> Android -> Build -> Check for "Default debug keystore: "

Reference : “Debug certificate expired” error in Eclipse Android plugins
