The problem: you're trying to feed AAS a RAR archive.

The solution: can be found by reading the file "readme.txt" that comes with the AAS software.

See the part in the readme.txt about "auto-addon.txt", a file you will have to create and add to the ZIP archive.

Also, don't run the AAS service as root. At the very least, create a normal user account for that. (Good security practice)
