Hi,
when I check the current folder inside the fs cli I get:

*freeswitch at lab002> system pwd*
*/*

So, if you use:



*f = "password.json"local file = io.open(f, "r")*

freeswitch would try to open "/password.json"
So I think you should pass the full file path:
f = "/usr/share/freeswitch/script/password.json"
