Try to upgrade your android studio, and when you run your project again, it will tell you where the problem is.

For me, I encountered this problem several times, the first time is something wrong with the style.xml, and the second time is string.xml file. Anyway, It seems Android studio could not find something wrong with .xml file.

But anyway, try to "refresh" your Android studio and let it tell you where are the problems, even reinstall it.

good luck!
