Call to a member function on a non-object

[eluser]Muncken[/eluser]
I have searched around and found similar threads, but none that could solve my problem. Suddenly, like out of nowhere, I started getting the error Call to a member function ... on a non-object. As far as I am concerned I have changed nothing, but something must have gone wrong.

The error shows whenever I am trying to call a Model function from within a Controller. I load the model the appropriate place with the

Code:

$this->load->model('myModel')

feature and I get no errors whatsoever. But when trying to use the model function, like this:

Code:

$data = $this->myModel->getData();

... I get the error from above. The strange thing is that if I call the model function directly, using:

Code:

$data = myModel::getData()

... Then it works. I have not touched the code above, so the error must be somewhere else in my project.

I am ripping my hair off of frustration. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
