I've stripped my module down to try and identify this error. The following are my files. Can you see why I get the error "Fatal error: Class 'Mage_Caitlinhavener_Addschool_Helper_Data' not found in /var/www/DTS_staging/public_html/app/Mage.php on line 546" on dashboard page?

Caitlinhavener/AddSchooltest/etc/config.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
  <config>
    <modules>
        <Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest>
            <version>0.1.0</version>
        </Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest>
    </modules> 

    <global>
        <helpers>
            <Addschooltest>
                <class>Caitlinhavener_Addschool_Helper</class>
            </Addschooltest>
        </helpers>  
    </global> 

    <admin>
        <routers>
           <adminhtml>
                <use>admin</use>
                <args>
                    <modules>
                        <Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest after="Mage_Adminhtml">Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest</Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest>
                    </modules>
                </args>
           </adminhtml>           
        </routers>      
    </admin> 
</config>

Caitlinhavener/AddSchooltest/etc/adminhtml.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <menu>
        <SchoolMenu translate="title" module="Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest">

            </children>
        </SchoolMenu>
    </menu>
</config>    

Caitlinhavener/Addschooltest/Helper/Data.php:

<?php

{
}

Caitlinhavener/Addschooltest/controllers/AddschoolController.php:

<?php

{
    public function indexAction()
    {
        $this->loadLayout();
        $this->renderLayout();
    }
}

The module attributes on your xml elements should be Addschooltest, like the alias you gave your helpers in config.xml instead of Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest.
Off topic a bit: You might want to change this to a lowercase value. I mean:

<helpers>
    <addschooltest><!-- helper alias -->
        <class>Caitlinhavener_Addschool_Helper</class>
    </addschooltest>
</helpers> 

After that your adminhtml.xml file should look like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <menu>
        <SchoolMenu translate="title" module="addschooltest">
            <title>Schools</title>
            <sort_order>23</sort_order>
            <children>
                <myitem2 translate="title" module="addschooltest">
                        <title>Add Schools</title>
                        <action>adminhtml/addschool</action>
                        <sort_order>2</sort_order>                        
                </myitem2>
            </children>
        </SchoolMenu>
    </menu>
</config>

  • Made identical changes... deleted cache and session files... reindexed... same error on dashboard :( Commented Aug 8, 2013 at 19:06
  • @CaitlinHavener this means that there is an other occurrence of module="Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest" in an other xml file.

  • I have a replica module but without test at the end... but I deleted its /etc/modules/ xml file... I'll try deleting the whole module. Commented Aug 8, 2013 at 20:21
  • I deleted the other modules Caitlinhavener/Addschool... discovered that my activation xml file was tagged Caitlinhavener_Addschool instead of Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest. Made those changes and deleted cache files. .. still have the error. Commented Aug 8, 2013 at 20:45
  • @CaitlinHavener. I'm 99.9% sure the error comes from an xml file. like I described. To debug this, try to disable your modules one by one until you isolate the problem. Then check the xml files in your module (etc and layout)

The helper class prefix you're declaring does not match the one that you're using (Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest_Helper_Data)

In your config.xml, change it from

<class>Caitlinhavener_Addschool_Helper</class>

to

<class>Caitlinhavener_Addschooltest_Helper</class>
