Application Failed to Start

I have the following error when I tried to deploy my app:
Attaching package: ‘DT’

The following objects are masked from ‘package:shiny’:

dataTableOutput, renderDataTable

Error in value[3L] : cannot open the connection

I've seen other posts about this issue with loaded packages but can't really understand how to solve my problem.

Is anyone knowledgable about the topic and can help this Shiny newbie out please?

Thanks in advance!!

The problem has to do with reading 'wnba_stats_2018.json':

cannot open file 'wnba_stats_2018.json': No such file or directory

Is that file located somewhere in the application directory (if not, try putting it under that directory)?

Hey thanks for responding. I should have taken this down because I figured it out shortly after. You were right. I hadn't added a global.r file so none of my datasets were loading.
