Extending magento core controller but not working

I am extending the magento core controller but it can't working. it cannot display any error. I have creating a module for it. the module is shown at the back-end in system/configuration/advanced . I have two files controller and etc. Controller/AccountController.php:

<?php
require_once Mage::getModuleDir('controllers', 'Mage_Customer').DS.'AccountController.php';
//we need to add this one since Magento wont recognize it automatically

class Inchoo_Coreextended_Frontend_Customer_AccountController extends Mage_Customer_AccountController
{//here, you extended the core controller with our
public function indexAction()
{
parent::indexAction();
//you can always use default functionality
}
public function myactionAction()
{
//my code
//you can write your own methods / actions
}
public function mymethod()
{
//my code
//you can write your own methods
}
public function loginAction()
{
    echo "har har mahadev";
//finally you can write your code that will rewrite the whole core method
//and you can call for your own methods, as you have full control over core controller
}
}

and etc/config.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Inchoo_Coreextended>
            <version>0.2.0</version>
        </Inchoo_Coreextended>
    </modules>
    <frontend>
        <routers>
            <customer>
                <args>
                    <modules>
                        <Inchoo_Coreextended before="Mage_Customer_AccountController">
                            Inchoo_Coreextended_Frontend_Customer_AccountController
                        </Inchoo_Coreextended>
                    </modules>
                </args>
            </customer>
        </routers>
    </frontend>
</config>

make this changes and it will fix the problem 

  <config>
        <modules>
            <Inchoo_Coreextended>
                <active>true</active>
                <codepool>local</codepool>
            </Inchoo_Coreextended>
        </modules>
    </config>

after

<config>
    <modules>
        <Inchoo_Coreextended>
            <active>true</active>
            <codePool>local</codePool>
        </Inchoo_Coreextended>
    </modules>
</config>

codepool should be codePool

Check the below code

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <modules>
        <Inchoo_Coreextended>
            <version>0.2.0</version>
        </Inchoo_Coreextended>
    </modules>
    <frontend>
        <routers>
            <customer>
                <args>
                    <modules>
                        <Inchoo_Coreextended before="Mage_Customer">
                            Inchoo_Coreextended_AccountController
                        </Inchoo_Coreextended>
                    </modules>
                </args>
            </customer>
        </routers>
    </frontend>
</config>

and in your module make directory structure as

Inchoo
  /Coreextended
   /controllers
    /AccountController.php

and in the file make the class as 

class Inchoo_Coreextended_AccountController extends Mage_Customer_AccountController

hope it helps!

Firs of all, this xml section:

<Inchoo_Coreextended before="Mage_Customer_AccountController">
    Inchoo_Coreextended_Frontend_Customer_AccountController
</Inchoo_Coreextended>

Should be 

<Inchoo_Coreextended before="Mage_Customer">Inchoo_Coreextended</Inchoo_Coreextended>

Put it on one line, because Magento does not trim the xml nodes.

Then your class should be placed in

app/code/local/Inchoo/Coreextended/controllers/AccountController.php and it should be named Inchoo_Coreextended_AccountController.

The rest seams to be ok.
