@mluis That is strange, I would assume dismiss closes the _recently_ open modal, instead of the currently active one. Here is a potential workaround using modal ids https://github.com/mluis/ionic4-modal-modal-issue/pull/1
@NikolaPeevski thank you for your contribution. Your workaround solves my app's issue.
@brandyscarney Is this issue closable ?
I'm trying to replicate 'overlay does not exist' issue within this github project which is what I'm getting in the app I'm developing.
@mluis Maybe you've forgotten to import IonicModule somewhere ?
@NikolaPeevski I have IonicModule.forRoot({menuType: 'overlay'}) imported in the imports section of app.module.ts
This is what's happening:

Adding the code below eliminates the error but doesn't close 'modal1':
const dismissTop = async () => {
const modal = await this.selfModalCtrl.getTop();
modal.dismiss();
};
dismissTop();
@mluis Can you push your changes in the repository that you've made earlier ? I'll look at it in a few hours, a little bit busy right now.
@NikolaPeevski I'm trying to replicate the overlay issue on the repository.
Managed to overcome the issue on my app with:
const dismissTop = async () => {
let modal = await this.selfModalCtrl.getTop();
modal.dismiss();
modal = await this.selfModalCtrl.getTop();
modal.dismiss();
};
dismissTop();
This is a workaround.
Feel free and manage the issue closing decision.
Thank you.

@NikolaPeevski All the changes I've made are in the master branch of my repo. I couldn't replicate the issue in that project though.... not sure why.
I think this may be similar to this bug - https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic/issues/20610#issuecomment-598100879
Hi everyone,
Is this still an issue in the latest version of Ionic Framework? I am not able to reproduce the issue anymore.
Thanks for the issue! This issue is being closed due to the lack of a reply. If this is still an issue with the latest version of Ionic, please create a new issue and ensure the template is fully filled out.
Thank you for using Ionic!
