NSString stringWithContentsOfFile failing with what seems to be the wrong error code

Question

I\'m trying to load a file into a string. Here is the code I\'m using:

NSError *error = nil;
NSString *fullPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:filename

Don't know if this is your problem, but I just had a similar thing (stringWithContentsOfFile, no JSON), and the problem was that the file had CRLF (windows) line-endings and Western-whatever-it's-called encoding. I used SubEthaEdit to convert to LF and UTF-8, and everything works fine.
