Why is Magento looking for this file as my resource model? 'Failed to open stream…No such file'

Question

I am trying to create a model for the first time in Magento - the resource model is Mygroup_Mymodule_Model_Resource_Link

The model alias I have used is mygroup_mymodule/link

I am trying to call $myVar = Mage::getModel('mygroup_mymodule/link') but I am getting this error:

Warning: include(Mage/Mygroup/Mymodule/Resource/Model/Link.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /[root]/lib/Varien/Autoload.php on line 93

This is true: there is no file there, or in app/code/local/Mygroup/Mymodule/Resource/Model/Link.php, but I don't know why Magento thinks there should be.

My folder structure is:

...
- Model/
    - Link.php
    - Resource/
        - Link.php
        - Link/
            - Collection.php
...

    extends Mage_Core_Model_Resource_Db_Abstract
{
    protected function _construct()
    {
        $this->_init('mygroup_mymodule/link', 'entity_id');

    extends Mage_Core_Model_Resource_Db_Collection_Abstract

    protected function _construct()
    {
        parent::_construct();

        $this->_init(
            'mygroup_mymodule/link',
            'mygroup_mymodule/link'
        );
    }
}

I also have a Helper and a controller in the module (as you can see in the config file), but I don't think that's relevant here.

Thanks very much for any help!

I am using CE 1.9.0.1

It looks as if you're missing a class definition in your resource model config:

        <mygroup_mymodule_resource>
            <class>Mygroup_Mymodule_Model_Resource</class>
            <entities>
                <link>
                    <table>mygroup_mymodule_link</table>
                </link>
            </entities>
        </mygroup_mymodule_resource>
