Install APK in the Emulator using ADB in CentOS

I am new to CentOS and I want to install an APK in the emulator using ADB. Using terminal, I used this syntax:

adb install <nameofapk>.apk

That command gave me this error :

Whoops: didn't find expected signature
read_central_directory_entry failed
file '<nameofapk.>.apk' is not a valid zip file
rm failed for /data/local/tmp/<nameofapk>.apk, No such file or directory

What do i need to do to get rid of that error message and be able to successfully install the APK?

Probably your APK file is invalid or corrupted, that's why it can't be installed. Try

unzip -t <nameofapk>.apk

to see if there's something wrong with your file.
