I thought I should add to this:

Went through the same problem and this post helped me figure out the cause (trying to render a non-existent view).

The thing is I was messing with custom flash message layouts, and the non-existent view was a custom flash layout that was specified earlier, but then changed. No matter how many times I reloaded the page, it kept the same way. I deleted all the cache files, even restarted Apache hoping that something was being cached in the memory level. Nothing worked.

Only after some 20 minutes I realized the name of the custom layout was written to the session itself, so regardless of me having changed it in my code, it was still being called.

The solution was to create the non-existent file temporarily and reload. It worked. I then removed this file and tried again: everything worked perfectly.

Just keeping this here in case it’s helpful to anyone.

Cheers

I was experiencing this same problem, but it was firing at my default layout. To remedy this, I had to put it in my app_controller.php file so it was available at a higher level.

class AppController extends Controller { var $helpers = array('Html', 'Javascript'); }

Remedied all my issues. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
