My flash is not accessible anymore!

Extracted source (around line #1):

1: <%= flash[:notice] %>

What the heck is the problem here? I can't remember doing anything that could have caused this..?

is this in a partial or view called flash ?

yes, it is within layouts/_flash.html.erb

Is this a problem?

Yes. partials get a local variable named after them, in this case flash, which is shadowing rails' flash

self.flash[:notice]

should work.
