Controller can't find requested view Yii error

Question

I am working on Yii project. It's working perfectly on my localhost. As I uploaded project on server, I am getting error on server on product csv upload page and it is giving me error as

ImportcsvController cannot find the requested view "import".

I have Importcsv Controller file, Importcsv folder( containing import.php and importcsv.php ) inside view folder and Importcsv model file. Everything is working fine on localhost but I don't understand why it's giving me error on server. All files are uploaded perfectly.

My Controller is

<?php
class ImportcsvController extends Controller
{
/**
 * @var string the default layout for the views. Defaults to '//layouts/column2', meaning
 * using two-column layout. See 'protected/views/layouts/column2.php'.
 */
public $layout='//layouts/main';
public $defaultAction='import';

/**
 * @return array action filters
 */
public function filters()
{
    return array(
        'accessControl', // perform access control for CRUD operations
        'postOnly + delete', // we only allow deletion via POST request
    );
}

/**
 * Specifies the access control rules.
 * This method is used by the 'accessControl' filter.
 * @return array access control rules
 */
public function accessRules()
{
    return array(
        array('allow',  // allow all users to perform 'index' and 'view' actions
            'actions'=>array('view','import'),
            'users'=>array('*'),
        ),

    );
}

/**

 * @param integer $id the ID of the model to be displayed

    $this->render('view',array(

the first letter of the directory created in protected/views cannot start with a capital letter (on Linux systems anyway).

If your hosting service is Linux then please checkout the folder name, this may help you, All the Best
