javafx.fxml.LoadException while programming with javafx

I am really new to javafx and trying to figure out what is what. It was going fine but then I encountered an exception.This is my code;

public void showPersonOverview() {
        try {
            // Load person overview.
            FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader();
            loader.setLocation(MainApp.class.getResource("/AddressAppView/PersonOverview.fxml"));
            AnchorPane personOverview = (AnchorPane) loader.load();

            // Set person overview into the center of root layout.
            rootLayout.setCenter(personOverview);

            // Give the controller access to the main app.
            PersonOverviewController controller = loader.getController();
            controller.setMainApp(this);

        } catch (IOException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

and i get an LoadExcepiton at

AnchorPane personOverview = (AnchorPane) loader.load();

anyone has any idea why? Stack trace----

The error message is saying that the type of a field in your controller class does not match the type declared in the fxml file. Specifically, your controller declares a field of type MainApp called mainApp, but your fxml file is trying to inject an AnchorPane into that field.
