IS_ESC_SUPPORT_ENABLED was set to True but EventScripts was not found

This happens if WCS fails to see the ES Emulator loaded prior to it. As this is only a warning, it can simply be ignored. If you're trying to load races or items from 0.77 (and prior) or 0.78, this warning must be fixed before your races or items will show up. To fix it, install EventScripts Emulator and load it before WCS. Follow the installation guide here if it causes you trouble.

json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Invalid control character at: line 2 column 20 (char 21)

It can mean you're missing a double quote (") or some value in one of your JSON files on line 2 at character position 21. Example:

{
    "username": "a,
    "password": null,
    "access_token": null,
    "repositories": []
}

json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting ',' delimiter: line 3 column 5 (char 27)

It means you're missing a delimiter (in this case, it's a comma (,)) in one of your JSON files on line 3 at character position 27 (for this, check the prior line as well and see if there's a missing delimiter). Example:

{
    "username": null
    "password": null,
    "access_token": null,
    "repositories": []
}

json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting ':' delimiter: line 2 column 16 (char 17)

It means you're missing a delimiter (in this case, it's a colon (:)) in one of your JSON files on line 2 at character position 17. Example:

{
    "username" null,
    "password": null,
    "access_token": null,
    "repositories": []
}

json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting ',' delimiter: line 5 column 28 (char 99)

It means you're missing a delimiter (in this case, it's a comma (,)) in one of your JSON files on line 5 at character position 99. Example:

{
    "username": null,
    "password": null,
    "access_token": null,
    "repositories": ["one" "two"]
}
