Hi there,
Just installed and enabled the module (also changed permissions to allow admin full rights) but I cannot see it in Admin->Structure...how can I use the module then? is there something else to tune up?
Regards,
Alex

davnguyen commentedExactly the same issue. Can't see the menu under /admin/config/system/backup_migrate either.
Comment #3
Guillermo Ramon commentedI installed Backup and Migrate and did not see any menu. Then, I went to "Help" and there were menus there.
Comment #4
firstlut commentedI'm using 7.x-2.1, but I'm having the same problem. Since I'm monkeying around with Drush, I can give you the error message I got:
Hope this helps. Of course, this is all from my Mac using MAMP, so it could be something bone-headed that I've done.

palllas commentedHi, just clear the cache.
Comment #6
holtzermann17 commentedWorks for me via admin/config/system/backup_migrate
Comment #7
wilgrace commentedAlso getting the same problem -clean install, doesn't appear in the menu and I can't access via
admin/config/system/backup_migrate
Comment #8
rolfmeijer commentedSame here, but I got it fixed by going to /admin/config/system/backup_migrate (which doesn’t exsist, so it shows the content of /admin/config/system).
THEN I cleared caches, and the bam page was there and the menu item too.
Comment #9
wmdickson commentedSame issue here. I tried all of the above with no luck. PHP error log is empty.
EDIT: The issue I was having is with the latest RELEASE version. The latest dev version (which appears to be earlier than the latest release, however) works fine.
Comment #10
henrikakselsen commentedSame issue, unfortunately neither #8 og #9 works for me. I've tried this on a fresh install and a dev site, both localhost. Will report back after more testing.
Comment #11
mechdog commentedI'm having the same issue. I have tried the suggestions here and the menu still doesn't appear
Comment #12
abraxas1 commentedsame here. Drupal7, shared hosting, 7.x-2.x-dev.
i had the same behaviour with another module and it was a module conflict issue. can't figure out what other module i have installed might be doing this. getting annoying though. :-)
Comment #13
xmichaelyx commentedSame issue. I solved it by going to /admin/config/system/backup_migrate. Needs to be a better way, though.
Comment #14
Rory commentedI was encountering this issue with 7.x-2.2. Tried everything but finally (and I do mean finally) solved the problem by restarting the server.
Seems quite random due to the results observed by others. For me, I might put it down to my hardware, Mac OSX or the MAMP environment. I noticed things were quite slow at the time this issue was occuring and this was fixed also by the restart.
Comment #15
Rory commentedSeems like this could be a Mac / MAMP issue? Anyone with the same issue elsewhere?
Comment #16
hyperglide commented@ rory -- same issue on my Mac / MAMP stack
Comment #17
Rory commentedDue to enabling via Drush it seems. Occuring in both the 7.x-2.2 and 7.x-2.x-dev branches.
I get the error every time unless I enable Backup and Migrate via the module list.
Comment #18
chen.730 commentedI randomly ran into the set permission section at admin/user/permissions, and checked the boxes uder backup_migrate module. Then the menu showed up for me.
Comment #19
Rory commented@chen.730 - were you using user id 1 at the time?
When I experienced this I was logged in as user id 1.
Comment #20
sonicthoughts commentedsame issue with version 2.4 after enable with drush. not just a menu issue - there is no way to get to config. After clear cache it was available.
Comment #21
senortim commentedNone of these solutions are working for me on my Mac/MAMP local install of D7.
I've even re-installed Backup & Migrate by hand (rather than Drush dl) but no luck there either.
The same codebase is running on my Test server, however. And there, B & M is working just fine. (I used the techniques above successfully on that instance of D7.)
Any other ideas??
Comment #22
senortim commentedFor what it's worth, I ultimately got it working locally by creating a new database and importing the SQL file generated by B&M from my Test server (which suggests to me that its not MAMP, but rather something in the database, perhaps by Drush??)
Comment #23
ronan commentedIs everybody having this issue enabling with Drush?
Is everybody seeing the following error:
Cannot redeclare class backup_migrate_destination_db
Do you guys happen to have a copy of B&M in sites/default as well as one in sites/all? I seem to recall some versions of Drush have an issue when there are multiple copies of a module installed.
Comment #24
tdi_dk commentedI experienced this very same problem, when I was trying to install and use the module.
I did not use Drush, but still had the problem.
I tried clearing the cache without it working. Next I tried to totally reset my browser, as I thought this might help, but still no luck.
The weird thing is, that I then tried to login using Firefox instead of Safari, and still it wasn't there. But when I emptied the cash logged in to Firefox, it showed up.
And now if I login with Safari, I can see it.
Don't know what has happened, but now it works. So thought I would mention this, if it might help anybody else.

Comment #26
kwerey commentedI got a new version of the Ronan got in this old thread, and since this old thread showed up at the top of results when I googled around for the problem I'll post my findings.
I got a DatabaseSchemaObjectExistsException error when I tried to install, and when I loaded the modules page against Backup & Migrate was listed as enabled but none of its config options were visible. Turns out Backup & Migrate creates four tables in your database on install: backup_migrate_destinations, backup_migrate_profiles, backup_migrate schedules and backup_migrate_sources. It does not remove any of these when you disable and remove it. Deleting them manually (Operations > DROP table in PHPmyAdmin), clearing the cache, and reinstalling fixed the problem right up for me.
Comment #27
couturier commentedIt is quite possible the newer versions of both Drupal and Backup and Migrate will have resolved this issue, but I am closing due to non-response from the issue reporters.
