Cakephp 2.0, controller doesn't see model

I'm busy upgrading a site for a client of mine. It's my first time working with CakePHP and I'm running into issues.

I created a table named banners inside my database, and I made the following files:

Model/Banner.php
Controllers/BannersController.php
View/Banners/admin_index.ctp

It seems like my controller can't find the model. Whenever I try to load the page admin_index.ctp I get the following message: Error: An Internal Error Has Occurred.

If i replace the contents of my public admin_index() and make it echo text, it does work.

I also tried adding a form to my admin_index.ctp by doing this

echo $this->Form->create('Banner');

This gives me another Error: An Internal Error Has Occurred.

I have set up my model, controller, view and database exactly the way the others for posts, pages, etc are set up and i just can't seem to get it to work. Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this?

Kind Regards,

Nick

<?php
class Banner extends AppModel {


}
?>

<?php
class BannersController extends AppController {
public $helpers = array('Html', 'Form');

public function admin_index(){
    $banners = $this->Banner->find('all');
    $this->set('banners', $banners);
}
?>

Thanks for all the advice guys. Based on the extended error message i did some research on google and found some other threads on stackoverflow.

i removed the files in my tmp/cache/models, and tmp/cache/persistent and the problem was resolved :-).

It can be really difficult to find a problem when everything seems to be programmed right.
