Error while deploying: No JSON object could be decoded

Hi @DAO,

Would you mind going through the post replied earlier with a similar issue:

Error on deploy: No JSON object could be decoded

I am trying to deploy a project I could previously deploy on Kobotoolbox from a xlsx upload. The file uploads correctly, but when I click “deploy”, I get this message: “No JSON object could be decoded”. Unlike other incidents I have seen documented, this is happening with the version open to “Researchers, Aid Workers, and Everyone Else”, so I cannot utilize the workarounds recommended for self-deployed kobotoolbox installations.
