Hi, I was receiving this type of error my times in codeigniter, The main issue that I have found and resolved this error is following!

1- If we are providing wrong file name and class name used in file then generate that type of error. e.g

file name is user_school_info.php and class name that we have defined in that file is

Code:
class School_info {

}

then I have got this type of error.

2- If I am returning an array of naming index and retrieving with different name then found this type of error! e.g

return array as

Code:
$users['info']['teacher']

and trying to retrieve in view class as an different name.

3- Appending an array after a string e.g

Code:
$user = 'test';

  $user['info'] = 'Our data'

Appending an array after string also display that type of error! So make sure that we have create an array for array values! :-)

Hoping this tutorial will help you to understand why we receive this type of error!
