Rails: AbstractController::Helpers::MissingHelperError - Missing helper file application_helper.rb_helper.rb

Question

Can't find any resource that's helped me in this! When I try to 'rails s' and go to any page of the app; it shoots me this error page saying I am missing helper files.

I think it's local on my desktop machine because I recently did some work to the app on my laptop. I pushed from the laptop and app works fine on Heroku and runs local on that machine with zero problems. I added a feature to upload company logo images using Carrierwave, Mini_Magick, and Fog to Amazon S3.

Things I've tried so far: I've deleted the app and git clone it back to this machine. I've tried Brew uninstall/install imagemagick and did all the basics like bundle install, rake db:migrate after I cloned the app. Still no luck..

Here is the error codes I am getting on the page and also the full trace:

AbstractController::Helpers::MissingHelperError in PagesController#dashboard

Answer 1

This worked for me:

cd ~
mv sites tmpsites
mv tmpsites sites

I also did this, but am unsure if it was required:

cd /
sudo ln -s Users users

Oddly, I can't see the lowercase users symlink, but both ls /users and ls /Users work.
