Help APK Easy Tool unable to recompile

[sylarr]

hi,

I was trying to recompile an apk via APK Easy tool. It was able to decompile easily. Then I selected 'use the appt2 binary instead of appt{v2.3.2} and re compress using zopfli.

Now when compiling I receive the below error :

Welcome to Android Forums, sylarr!

You're most likely to get help with this problem by posting on our Android Development board. That's where you'll find other app developers.

When you post there, please include as many details as possible, such as your OS version. Also, use the 'code' tag to enclose that long text output; it's much neater!
