Look at the actual Linker output in the ‘Console’ view (not just the summary in the ‘Problems’ view).

This should also have another message saying where it thinks the other definition(s) is/are…

The most common reason for this kind of error is that you have variable definition(s) in header file(s);  
your headers should contain only declarations.
