I recently updated to version 2.0-rc2 from 2.0-beta7. With that update, the block list no longer displays block created by views. Upon a closer look, it's only showing manually created blocks with static content. So no menu blocks, no views blocks, no default drupal blocks. None.

I have all three modules (context, ui and contrib) enabled and have tried re-enabling and re-installing them all. Still no luck.

Am I missing something? Is there any other information I can provide?

Do you have any themes active on the admin/build/themes page? If not then this will cause this issue (#780658: Having no themes active causes SQL error.).

This problem exists if you are using an administration theme /admin/settings/admin which is not enabled here /admin/build/themes/select.

I had Rubik set as my administration theme and garland enabled and default for site, the views generated block only became available to me in contexts when I enabled rubik.

It is not always desirable to have your administration theme enabled site wide even if it's not default.

It really should be able to cope with that use-case, I will look into this.

@mrsimonelliott, That was the problem! I was using rubik as an admin theme but it wasn't enabled in the themes list. Once I enabled it my blocks were back.

Ah, okay this is because Drupal's 'block cache' doesn't get rebuilt very often, I've added a specific call to do so into the code.

Should be fixed in http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=360926
