Hi Oliver, my guess is that you haven’t got the RequestHandler in your components array for that controller, try including the request handler at the top of the controller you are using when this error appears:
var $components = array(‘RequestHandler’, ‘Api’);

Hi,

I am really loving your approach and everything seems to run fine, except one thing..
When there is a view file missing your app_error class is throwing an error:

Notice (8): Undefined property: CakeErrorController::$RequestHandler [APP/app_error.php, line 165]

Fatal error: Call to a member function prefers() on a non-object in /dev/app/app_error.php on line 165

I tried a lot, but can’t find the mistake..
