Hello everyone,
I have a problem installing some modules. When I install the module views UI it shows up in my list of modules but I can not select the module. It sais 'views missing'. I have the same problem after installing colorbox. I am a beginner with drupal and i am using drupal 7.
I would like it if there is someone who can explane me in an easy way... :)
Thanks alot...

You need the dependecies

Posted by Je Kyran on January 3, 2013 at 5:01pm

Some modules depend upon other modules to provide some underlying functionality, or they are helper modules as in the case of Views UI, so you have to install the dependencies.

Views UI provides the User Interface for the main Views module and Views is dependent upon the CTools module. So you need to download CTools as well, then the system will permit the main Views module to be installed along with Views UI.

Hope that helps
JK

You should already have it

You should already have it otherwise you wouldn't see Views UI. In any case you can find it at http://drupal.org/project/views
