I cannot find module "Widget"

I have been following the Elm tutorial on the website and I tried it on a Mac and it worked, but when I ported it to Linux, it gave me the following error:

- I cannot find module 'Widget'.

Module 'Main' is trying to import it.

Potential problems could be:
    * Misspelled the module name
    * Need to add a source directory or new dependency to elm-package.json

This was the code which was being used:

main.elm

module Main exposing (..)

import Html exposing (Html)
import Html.App
import Widget


-- MODEL


type alias AppModel =
    { widgetModel : Widget.Model
    }


initialModel : AppModel
initialModel =
    { widgetModel = Widget.initialModel
    }


init : ( AppModel, Cmd Msg )
init =
    ( initialModel, Cmd.none )



-- MESSAGES


type Msg
    = WidgetMsg Widget.Msg



-- VIEW


view : AppModel -> Html Msg
view model =
    Html.div []
        [ Html.App.map WidgetMsg (Widget.view model.widgetModel)
        ]



-- UPDATE


update : Msg -> AppModel -> ( AppModel, Cmd Msg )
update message model =
    case message of
        WidgetMsg subMsg ->
            let
                ( updatedWidgetModel, widgetCmd ) =
                    Widget.update subMsg model.widgetModel
            in
                ( { model | widgetModel = updatedWidgetModel }, Cmd.map WidgetMsg widgetCmd )



-- SUBSCIPTIONS


subscriptions : AppModel -> Sub Msg
subscriptions model =
    Sub.none



-- APP


main : Program Never
main =
    Html.App.program
        { init = init
        , view = view
        , update = update
        , subscriptions = subscriptions
        }

widget.elm

module Widget exposing (..)

import Html exposing (Html, button, div, text)
import Html.Events exposing (onClick)


-- MODEL


type alias Model =
    { count : Int
    }


initialModel : Model
initialModel =
    { count = 0
    }



-- MESSAGES


type Msg
    = Increase



-- VIEW


view : Model -> Html Msg
view model =
    div []
        [ div [] [ text (toString model.count) ]
        , button [ onClick Increase ] [ text "Click" ]
        ]



-- UPDATE


update : Msg -> Model -> ( Model, Cmd Msg )
update message model =
    case message of
        Increase ->
            ( { model | count = model.count + 1 }, Cmd.none )

Any tips on how to fix this?

Because Linux filesystems are case sensitive, you should name your Elm files with the same case as the module they declare.

So in your case:

Main module should be in "Main.elm".

Widget module should be in "Widget.elm".
