Rails missing template in own gem

Question

I forked a gem and changed some things, but I am really desperate. I always get Template is missing:

Template is missing Missing template spree/addresses/index, spree/store/index, spree/base/index, application/index with {:locale=>[:de, :en], :formats=>[:html], :handlers=>[:erb, :builder, :raw, :ruby, :jbuilder, :coffee, :haml, :rabl], :versions=>[:v1]}.

This is my routes file:

Spree::Core::Engine.routes.draw do
  # Add your extension routes here
  namespace :account do
    resources :orders, only: [:index]
    resources :favourites, only: [:index]
    resources :addresses, only: [:index]
  end

end

This is my AddressesController in controller/spree/account/:

module Spree
  module Account
    class AddressesController < Spree::StoreController

  before_filter :check_logged_in_user

  def index
    @user = try_spree_current_user

  end

  private

  def check_logged_in_user
    unless try_spree_current_user
      account_addresses__path 
      redirect_to spree_login_path 
    end
  end

  end
 end
end

I have a index.haml in views/spree/account/addresses/, and this is part of rake routes:

account_orders GET    /account/orders(.:format)                                     spree/account/orders#index
account_favourites GET    /account/favourites(.:format)                                               spree/account/favourites#index
account_addresses GET    /account/addresses(.:format)                                                spree/account/addresses#index

Can someone please give me a hint?

I had an similar experience, not sure if this applies to you or not but here it is:

This is the error I got:

ActionView::MissingTemplate at / . 
Missing partial spree/shared/_google_analytics with {:locale=>[:en], :formats=>[:html], :variants=>[], :handlers=>[:raw, :erb, :html, :builder, :ruby, :coffee, :haml, :jbuilder, :rabl], :versions=>[:v1]}. Searched in:
* "/Users/sjones/work/cs-spree/app/views"...

But it turns out the partial actually exists and is even being parsed and run (I use the RubyMine debugger to check)

The error is incorrect. In my case a helper method try_spree_current_user was missing from the controller, and this missing method NoMethodError error was somehow being trapped and replaced with the MissingTemplate error shown.

Fixing that error caused the template to load just fine.

Like I said, this may not be your problem, but this is so weird I'm posting this for others.
