Error while creating custom view

I am currently using Splunk version 4.3.1. When I tried creating a custom module for my specific requirement, I am getting the following error when I navigate to the view:

"Splunk cannot find the "dashboardxxxxx" view."

When I checked the web_service.log file the following error was shown:

2013-01-17 09:36:25,201 ERROR [50f7c61913d5423d0] memoizedviews:116 - Error loading view "dashboardxxxxx"

Please help on how to resolve this issue.

There was an issue in the conf file of my custom module to define the parameters. Once the issue was fixed, the dashboard was loaded correctly.
