Answer 1

I too had a similar problem with a customDirective and unitentionally duplicated my controller.

   
      
   


angular.directive('myDirectivie', [function() {
   return {
         restrict: 'E',
         controller: 'MyDirectiveCtrl',

         ...

   }
}]);

I resolved it by removing ng-controller tag at body level
