Hello,

I installed Profile2 and had some of the issues I read other people reporting about, namely that when you disable it it crashes Drupal. I managed to enable it and get Drupal working again, but now I am trying to use Profile2.

The problem is, when I read the documentation online, everything seems to say that you start up by going to Structure -> Profile Types. But when I go to structure, Profile Types doesn't show up at all, and going to admin/structure/profiles just goes to the Structure page. Does anyone know what may be causing this/how I can get Profile Types to show up? or is there another way that I can get profiles to work? I have tried many things (changing permissions, enabling Profiles in the "pages" category, the configuration section for Profile2) but nothing seems to work.

I am having the exact same issue as above.

Structure -> Profile Types does not exist. Clicking on the configuration link in the Profile2 entry in the modules list also just sends me to the Structure administration page but there is no option for Profile2.

Have you tried clearing your cache after enabling the module?

Seems to be working in the 7.x-1.2+5-dev version.

I just experienced the same thing and found that it was not simply profiles 2 that would not list correctly in admin/structure/ . Even turning off a module like Views was not registered and the module was still listed in admin/structure, even though it was correctly shown in admin/modules as being disabled. In my case, I tracked the problem down to a custom module in which I was trying to generate menu links via hook_menu. The hook was not working correctly, so there must be an error in it, but I have not tracked it down yet. In any event, disabling that custom module restored the Admin/structure listing to the correct behavior.

solution

Hi there , i had the same problem (i have posted that problem ,see the previous), it solved solution -

we always used to follow the: Step 3: The settings.php file (while installation steps)
see this link
http://drupal.org/documentation/install/settings-file

but due to some stuffs i had changed the permission of '\sites\default'(ya,default folder in our drupal) to write protected , also changed inside (the default folder contains 2 settings php-files would be there) , i have changed that permission to write protected

solution-
i changed permissions of default folder and files(2 settings php-files) inside that default folder to writable ,from command prompt(its necessary when your site on live server ) .

ya and 1 more possibility is there , if you are getting server error while installing module,then module doesn't installed fully, then also "Profile types not showing up at all in Structure"........
