Runtime Error

[MarcinMoskala]

I started on Ubuntu, and I get follwing error:

marcin@marcin-comp:~/Projects$ python3 apk2java.py d MakeMeBetter.apk

The same with normal python:

Can you try this command? /home/marcin/Projects/apk2java/tool/apktool_200rc3.jar d MakeMeBetter.apk -o /home/marcin/Projects/makemebetter -f

[MarcinMoskala]

/home/marcin/Projects/apk2java/tool/apktool_200rc3.jar d MakeMeBetter.apk -o /home/marcin/Projects/makemebetter -f
bash: /home/marcin/Projects/apk2java/tool/apktool_200rc3.jar: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error

[TheZ3ro]

Have you java installed? Try to execute chmod +x /home/marcin/Projects/apk2java/tool/apktool_200rc3.jar

Maybe it is trying to use ARM architecture binary? Like in this suggestion: https://askubuntu.com/questions/648555/bash-program-cannot-execute-binary-file-exec-format-error

it's a problem of the java file. I will work on this in the next few days if I have some free time.

You can check out #6 that should works fine.
