I am running the latest CCK and View as of today. Both before and after the upgrade I noted that I can no longer create a view referring to CCK Fields.

One-liners 'critical' bug reports is simply not possible. You need to provide more info on what you're doing / what you're seeing if you want anyone to help you.
What do you mean by 'I can no longer create a view referring to CCK Fields' ? "When I do X, I'd expect Y but I get Z instead"...
"latest CCK and View as of today" : meaning, the CCK RC7 and Views RC3 ? or thee -dev releases ?

Plus :
Did you run all updates ?
Did you clear your site's cache ? (admin/settings/performance, 'clear cached data' at the bottom of the page)

I deleted the previous CCK and replaced it, as required. I ran all updates and cleared my cache as well as the Views cache. When creating a new view of type Node and then adding a Filter, I do not see any CCK fields displayed as filter options. In prior versions I saw the CCK fields displayed and could select them and add criteria. In addition, when I try to add Fields to the view, the CCK fields do not show up there either. I have the latest Views, so perhaps this is just something simple I am missing, but as far as I can tell Drupal does not see any CCK fields from Views -- the integration apparently just isn't there at all.

NOTE: I have also seen another user post a statement that he/she has seen this in 6.x (in the thread about the 5.x issue)... although I am not sure whether a separate issue was posted on this for 6.x, I did want to draw your attention to it since the 5.x issue is showing as active.

Are you running Views and CCKs RC releases, or -dev releases ?

I am running only the RC releases.

If you're comparing to the D5 versions of Views and CCK, things are sorted and placed differently.

The CCK fields and filters all have the prefix 'Content:', be sure you're either selecting the 'Content' group or looking far enough down the field list. CCK fields also only show up on views that are based on the 'node' or 'node revision' tables, so you won't see them if you're creating view for, say, the user table.

If you still have trouble, go to the Views 'Tools' menu and clear the Views cache, and disable views data caching until you have things working.

If you still have trouble after that you might also temporarily check the box to 'Disable javascript with Views' to keep javascript from hiding some of your options.

Actually I am not comparing with D5, just noting that someone saw the error there as well, in a different thread. I will try your suggestions and let you know. Thanks!

Hi,

I am having exactly the same problem. I have just started work on a site which has:

cck 6.x-2.0-rc6
views 6.x-2.0-rc3

The content group doesn't show up in the fields section. I have tried disabling data caching and js, and my view is definitely for nodes.

Aside from this, Views 2 is great, editing template.php to theme never felt right :-)

Thanks,
John

"cck 6.x-2.0-rc6" is now two versions out of date, rc8 is out. Views changed its API and earlier versions of CCK with later versions of Views is just not going to work. You need the latest versions of everything.

Fantastic, it works fine with the latest versions, wish I'd done that 3 hours ago :-)

Thanks!

Same issue here. Upgraded both cck and views from earlier RC's to the most recent and "content" fields are now showing up. Thanks for sharing the info folks!
