Hi,

I am just starting out building a custom install profile.. I based it in the D7 "minimal" profile to get me started.. It was all coming alonge nicely, adding extra modules with a make file etc.. Then I discovered "Profiler".. I added the two lines to the .profile file and it seems that my .install is no longer processed..

At this stage the .install is pretty much a copy of the one from the "minimal" profile..

Am I doing something wrong or is there a bug?

I know this was posted some time ago, but I experienced the same thing and spent a lot of time before I figured it out.

It seemed to 'run' portions of the install file, but some items never seem to make it to the database.

i.e. - Theme for admin (seven) was enabled but not any block configuration for a theme.

There are posts about using profiler, but I found most folks have not done end-end non-interactive installs with complex profiles that include both an .install file (even just based on standard) along with more ;info style syntax used by the profiler.

I'm of a mind to not use the profiler at all. Has anyone run into anything similar?

Yes, indeed, I can't setup system block on install and have an ajax error on install end just before visiting the new site.

I had to use install tasks and use myprofile_install() in myprofile.profile because myprofile.install gave me problems...

But I still can't alter form if I use profiler... How to set default values on profiler_form_install_configure_form_alter for exemple?

Can you describe step by step how to replicate the issues you're running into?
