Sorry I wasn't very clear

My point was that Menu is not generated but Tab is.

This is a highly, highly, highly used feature of Views; seriously, nearly everyone uses it, and no one has complained about it to date. So I have trouble believing it is just broken.

And I don't have enough information to even suggest what's wrong, either, but you should really look around. Be sure to look in the right menu (The default Navigation menu), at least. But I'm highly dubious there's anything wrong with Views here, or I'd be flooded with issue reports about it.

I will check on my other production seite and will come back to you.
Thanks

I have the same problem. "Provide menu" is ticked, but no menu is generated. Any advice?

I have the same problem. I am using Views 5.x-1.6-beta5 on Drupal 5.5
I will try to debug it and report back if I find anything interesting.

I upgraded to latest 5.x-1.6, ran the update.php script, re-saved my view, still nothing in my menu tree.

I found what might be the cause of this problem.

I have a menu called "Bottom Menu" which I list a couple of thing and I added items manually in there.
One of the items in that menu had the same exact URL as my view (intended).
I want TWO entry in my menu that point to that view.

As soon as I removed that entry from the menu, my views menu entry showed up right away.

I was able to add my custom menu item in my bottom menu after the view menu item appeared in the menu tree.

So, it seems like any view that provide a menu must not conflict with any existing menu items's URL.

roychri: What you want is not possible, due to limitations in Drupal's menu system. There is nothing Views can do about it, either.
