I'm trying to connect to google cloud SQL using cloud_sql_proxy, I've followed the steps that google provided. I have a service account in the directory I'm running my commands on and I ran this command first:

  export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=‘service-account.json’

Then I ran the command needed to connect:

./cloud_sql_proxy -instances=instance-name:europe-west1:project:project=tcp:5432

But when I run this it gives me this error:

2022/10/22 12:54:36 Rlimits for file descriptors set to {Current = 8500, Max = 1048576}
2022/10/22 12:54:37 invalid json file "‘service-account.json’": open ‘service-account.json’: no such file or directory

I've tried to change the export command to say ./service-account, ~/absolute/path/to/service-account.json and all resulted in the same error.

I'm running the command where both service-account.json and cloud_sql_proxy are located and when I run ls -la it really does show them.

What could be the problem?

Remove the single quotation and you will be fine.
