Common errors and solutions

  1. File permission issues
    • Solution: Ensure that the application has read and write permissions for the specified JSON file path. Check the file system permissions and adjust them if necessary.
  2. Invalid JSON format
    • Solution: Verify that the JSON file follows the correct syntax. Use a JSON validator or parser to check for errors if you manually edit the file.
  3. File path not found
    • Solution: Make sure the specified path exists and is accessible. Create any necessary parent directories before attempting to read or write the JSON file.
  4. Encoding issues
    • Solution: Ensure the JSON file is saved with UTF-8 encoding to support all characters properly. If you encounter encoding problems, check the file’s encoding and convert it if necessary.
