Problem with update.zip

Hi all i create an update.zip.
I signed it, after adding apks (/system/app), datas (/data/data) and modifying the updater-script.
So, when i flash it, the recovery executes it perfectly, but when i reboot my phone, only a part of the apps that i wanted to add are installed and the others are in /system/app but not installed and when i try to install them manually with Root Explorer in /system/app, this is the output:
Code:
There is a problem parsing the package
Why does it happen?! What can i do??
I have ever a error when i make a update zip or can not open update zip what i can do??? I used a updatezip creator.

Modifying stock rom

I am very interested in ROM developing, the problem is i am a beginner. I tried to look for some guides, but they are quite hard to find to be honest. If i would want to modify stock rom what should i do? Although i could not find it i thought this could be an option:
- flash stockrom through odin
- modify stockrom
- make backup and copy system.img
- in a flashable zip you have the system directory, but how do you obtain this directory from system.img, what program do i need? Simple mounting program poweriso didn't recognize the image. I thought it might be possible to directly extract the required files from the odin package, but not find a guide for this?
Use MagicISO to extract system.img

Use 7zip to extract system.img from odin's md5 file.

dsiXDA kitchen should be used only to zip-align, deodex and repack everything to flashable zip. It isnt really good at extracting .img files (personal opinion).
Read ketut's blackhawk rom's 2nd post for more info about dsiXDA kitchen

Probably a dump question, but when i extract the md5 file i obtained only a boot.img file and a recovery.img file, system.rfs file and some other files. Where is the system.img file located? I can't load the .img files with magic iso.

Open magicISO. Click on open -> navigate to system.rfs. It will load up all folders inside system.rfs. Select all -> right click -> extract all

How to extract system.img.ext4?

I accidentally deleted DefaultContrainerService.apk and now I can't install apps. Can someone tell how can I extract system.img.ext4 to get it back?
I think Android Kitchen can do that.

7-Zip
7-Zip cannot read .img.ext4 files. I used program called sgs2toext4 and now the file is .ext4.img and 7-Zip can read it but it can't extract any .so files. I need to get libdefcontrainer_jni.so from /system/priv-app/DefaultContrainerService/lib/arm.

Use for that the EXT2 unpacker tool,

Select Package and then the directory where you want to extract it.
Doesn't work. It can't save that .so file.
same problem here, i try to extract cache.img from S8 firmware (G950FXXU1AQJ1/G950FOXM1AQJ1/G950FXXU1AQJ1/G950FXXU1AQJ1 , 20171018104053) . using ImgExtractor 1.3.7 it extracts , but the extracted zip cannot be opened by any program, with ext4_unpacker (after i fix the img header 4 bytes using sgs4ext4fs) it gives 'list index out of bounds' when i try to extract the zip, using CacheRipperUX it extracts the zip from img but when i try to open the zip using 7-zip it only sees a few files, when i try to open with Winrar it sees full list but cannot extract any of them because it give archive corrupted.
i found a solution: convert the original cache.img (samsung sparse ext4) to raw ext4 using simg2img , and the resulted .img file open with 7-zip and extract the content. My zip content was extracted correctly.
Is there any app for android which can extract .img files like system.img?
