The model item passed into the dictionary is of type 'BlogHomePageModel', but this dictionary requires a model item of type 'BlogHomePageModel' - asp.net-mvc

Question

I'm using Umbraco 7.04. I would post code but I can't determine what is causing the problem. I did make some edits to a class in my App_Code folder and my website started displaying this error. I reverted those edits but still get the error.
A coworker mentioned that .net can cache files so I tried recycling app pool and editing web.config to no avail.
EDIT: here is the code I believe was causing the problem, although it seemed to have gone away randomly.
BlogHomePage View
#inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<BlogHomePageModel>
#{
Layout = "BlogLayout.cshtml";
var BlogBackgroundImageCss = Html.Raw(HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(Model.BannerImageBackgroundImageCss));
var BlogHomeContent = Html.Raw(HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(Model.BlogHomeContent));
var AllTags = Html.Raw(HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(thunder.TagHelper.GetAllTags(Model.Content)));
var PagingHtml = Html.Raw(HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(Model.PagingHtml));
}
<div class="blog-area">
<div class="blog-banner-area" style="#BlogBackgroundImageCss" >
<span>#Model.BannerImageTitle</span>
</div>
<div class="blog-nav-area">
<button class="blog-nav-collapse-button"><span>Search</span></button>
<div class="blog-nav-inner-area">
#{ Html.RenderPartial("BlogHomeSearchInformation", Model); }
#{ Html.RenderPartial("BlogPostSearch"); }
#AllTags
#{ Html.RenderPartial("BlogHomeAside", Model); /*use partial to render blog post aside*/ }
</div>
</div>
<div class="blog-main-area">
<div class="blog-heading-area">
<div class="blog-heading-text-container">
#BlogHomeContent
<button class="blog-about-this-blog-expand-button">Read More</button>
</div>
</div>
#if (Model.Posts.Count() > 0) {
foreach (var Post in Model.Posts) {
Html.RenderPartial("BlogHomePostPartial", Post); /*use partial to render blog post content*/
}
#PagingHtml
} else {
<p>Sorry, but no posts matched your query.</p>
}
</div>
</div>
BlogHomeSearchInformationPartial
#inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<BlogHomePageModel>
#{
string SearchTerm = (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request.QueryString["s"])) ? Request.QueryString["s"] : "";
string TagTerm = (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Request.QueryString["t"])) ? Request.QueryString["t"] : "";
}
<div id="blog-search-results-information">
#if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(SearchTerm)) {
if (Model.TotalResults == 1) {
<p>Your search for "#SearchTerm" returned #Model.TotalResults result. Click here to return to home page.</p>
} else {
<p>Your search for "#SearchTerm" returned #Model.TotalResults results. Click here to return to home page.</p>
}
}
#if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(TagTerm)) {
if (Model.TotalResults == 1) {
<p>There is #Model.TotalResults post tagged "#TagTerm". Click here to return to home page.</p>
} else {
<p>There are #Model.TotalResults posts tagged "#TagTerm". Click here to return to home page.</p>
}
}
</div>
BlogPostSearch
#inherits UmbracoTemplatePage
#{
string SearchTerm = "";
SearchTerm = Request.QueryString["s"];
}
<form role="search" method="get" id="searchform" action="/">
<div class="blog-search-area">
<input type="search" name="s" value="#SearchTerm">
<button type="submit">Search</button>
</div>
</form>
BlogPostAside
#inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<BlogHomePageModel>
#{
var AsideLinks = Html.Raw(HttpUtility.HtmlDecode(Model.AsideLinks));
}
#if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.AsideHeading) || !string.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.AsideSubheading) || !string.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.AsideContent) || !string.IsNullOrEmpty(Model.AsideLinks)) {
<div class="blog-contact-area">
<span class="blog-contact-heading">#Model.AsideHeading</span>
<span class="blog-contact-subheading">#Model.AsideSubheading</span>
<p>#Model.AsideContent</p>
#AsideLinks
</div>
}

Answer 1

Seems to me you have defined a special model on your view (or you did inherit form something).
Try to remove the #model and the #inherits from your view.

Answer 2

problem solved itself mysteriously :( After a little more research I believe it may be related to this question: The model item passed into the dictionary is of type ‘mvc.Models.ModelA’ but this dictionary requires a model item of type ‘mvc.Models.ModelB‘
