I am developing a joomla component in my localhost, every thing is ok on the localhost but when i create installation package and install the component on the online host i get 500 view not found error

PS. I added all view files in the package also added views folder to installation xml file also i checked files in the host , every needed file exists and there is no missing file.

another thing that i should say is that im running joomla 3.3.0 in localhost but 3.3.3 in online host.

I read all "view not found" articles in the internet :D but i couldn't find a solution :(

Regards

Edit :

i uninstalled the component from localhost and installed component package on it again , every thing works fine , so the error is on the host. i changed files permission but still have same error.

500 error is usually permissions issue. check that your files have appropriate permissions - trainoasis
I changed permission for view.html.php and tmpl/default.php from 640 to 750 but nothing changed - Morteza Soleimani
Only in the online host this error exists , I uninstalled component from localhost and installed package on it , every thing is ok . but on online host i see error :-( - Morteza Soleimani

Joomla can't find the view with the given name. Besides @TheKrotek considerations, you should check the filename capitalization. Windows, for some wild reason, cannot tell "a" from "A" in a filename.

It's not a permissions issue at all. Joomla simply can't find the view with given name. Check your view name VERY carefully. It should be MyComponentViewMyPage, not myComponentViewmyPage or MycomponentViewMypage. Joomla is damn sensitive to this stuff.

Here's an example:

class SmartShoutboxViewShout extends JViewLegacy

Smart Shoutbox is the name of the component and Shout is a page it belongs.
