Most probably the wrong password as the error message suggests.

Then the keystore has been tampered with, i.e. is corrupt.I would double- and triple-check the password issue personally.

i have been following the examples from the keytool manual and using the same storepass and keypass for testing purposes.

it creates a file named keystore on the root i'm working, and i try to export the certificate i get the error described above
