title: AWS CLI - No JSON object could be decoded
body: <p>Im using the CLI for AWS to create a cluster and use the parameters from a json file. Here is the CLI command string Im using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>aws emr create-cluster --name "Big Matrix Re Run 1" --ami-version 3.1.0 --steps file://Segmentgroup1.json --release-label --instance-groups InstanceGroupType=MASTER,InstanceCount=1,InstanceType=m3.xlarge InstanceGroupType=CORE,InstanceCount=2,InstanceType=m3.xlarge --auto-terminate
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My json file (Segmentgroup1.json) is in the same folder in which Im running the AWS command string from, but I keep getting the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>No JSON object could be decoded
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Based on what Ive found its not finding the json file. Any ideas?</p>
