Jdk v7 never works.. You need to use jdk v6 only.
Remove jdk v7. Remove apktool. Restart pc. Reinstall everything.

Okay, thanks, i will try
I am currently working on creating a new rom for the Note 2 (XXDLL4 - 4.1.2) and I was trying to edit SecSettingsProvider.apk. While I could decompile it, apktool kept bringing up errors while compiling even when not even modifying the apk. On other system files it worked correctly so I'm wondering if there's a different process to use with this file ?
This is the error :
