When I use one of GFF tool (
Filter GFF data by attribute using simple expressions OR
Filter GFF data by feature count using simple expressions OR
, I have this message :
Traceback (most recent call last):

simplejson.decoder.JSONDecodeError: No JSON object could be decoded: line 1 column 0 (char 0)
A couple questions:

Are you seeing this problem on a local instance or on our public server?
Is it happening for all GFF/GTF datasets or just some?

Thanks,
