It seems that you are using Python 3. This project is Python 2 only.

Finally, I tried to change the permission of the AAPT file to 777, but the final result was still as follows: stdin stdin stdin ERROR

img_20181128_090905 Is there any problem with this input? I'm looking at these non-annotated documents that are somewhat difficult to understand. Do you have any documentation on this tool? I am very grateful to you for your efforts.

I have the exact same issue, and get the same output. First of all, I managed to make it run replacing ./ with python and it worked, but produced the same java errors and the overall output was stdin stdin stdin ERROR. The tool was run on kali linux VM and with python 2.7 I have tried multiple apk files and has worked on none. Based on the message, there are problems in the Java code.

What I am surprised about is that this tool was designed, developed and used to analyze multiple apps based on the accompanying paper, and was really looking forward to using it for a testing, thesis and paper. The group's paper was great and the tool would have been great for static analysis, since it is exactly what we aim to test.

Any suggestions? Has anyone tried to resolve the code issues?
