7.x-2.1 - not finding link to BAM in admin pages

Hrmm - no. Nothing obvious. Do you have any error messages or log entries that could help shed light on this? Did you upgrade from an earlier version? Did it ever show up? Have you installed any other modules in the meantime? (What modules do you have installed?)
Definitely in need of further info - anything/everything you can provide will help!

I actually am having this problem. It is not showing up under admin/config/system -... I just see Site info, Actions, and Cron. No BAM.

I disabled it under modules and re-enabled it and this is what I get:
DatabaseSchemaObjectExistsException: Table backup_migrate_profiles already exists. in DatabaseSchema->createTable() (line 630 of /home/tsaifami/public_html/oldstonecrossing.net/drupal/includes/database/schema.inc)

To note, I did upgrade from the dev version to this one.

Im having an issue as well with D6 BAM. I have added it to the appropriate modules folder but it does not show on the admin modules page for me to install/enable it? Any insight on the problem?

Bump, I've installed the both the recommended and the dev package (not at the same time) and nowhere can I find the interface to BAM. It appears that there are some different issues being reported here perhaps this issue needs to be split. The original reporter of the problem was just looking in the wrong place do to improper documentation. Another is not seeing the module available for installation. I am able to install and activate the module, but BAM does not appear anywhere in the interface, (not improperly documented from what I see, just simply not there).

Some follow up, I have removed and reinstalled the stable 7 release, the dev release and the nightly from git, none of them ever show anywhere in the administration section. I tried a 6 version but this wouldn't activate at all. I'm at a loss as to what to try next.

Right - we may have some different things colliding here (per #5).

In Drupal 7, BAM is under 'Configurations >> System' (admin/config/system/backup_migrate). If you're not seeing it there, try uninstalling and reinstalling the latest stable.
In Drupal 6, BAM is under 'Content management >> Backup and Migrate' (admin/content/backup_migrate). Likewise - if that isn't showing up, uninstall / reinstall.

Finally, please note that the Drupal 6 version (version 6.x-anything) of the module will not work in Drupal 7 and vice-versa -- that's just the way Drupal works.

If this does not fix things, please give specific version numbers you are using (Drupal, BAM, etc.) and be as explicit as possible about steps you took to get to where you are (upgrades, fresh install, etc.) Also please share all other modules that are enabled.

Thanks dgorton that did the trick, I knew I must be in the wrong place. I was trying to figure it out this afternoon by looking at the code but wasn't getting anywhere. Awesome, time to back up!

Here's another datapoint: I'm running a fresh install of Drupal 7.0. I downloaded and enabled backup_migrate 7.x-2.1 via drush and also had the issue that there was no place in the administration area to configure it. I disabled and re-enabled backup_migrate via the administration Modules page in the user interface and then it showed up. Perhaps it's related to drush integration?

Hi all,

Sorry I haven't mentioned this on here before. Per the D7 usability team, I moved the location of Backup and Migrate between verison 7.x-2.0 and 7.x-2.1 from the 'build' section to the 'config -> system' section. If it is not showing up there after an upgrade, then a cache clear (under performance) should do the trick.

If you're having a problem with the D6 version then it is a different issue altogether and you should open a new ticket so we can track that separately.

Uninstall and reinstall of the latest -dev fixed this issue for me.

Fixed per #10.

Just FYI clearing cache fixed my problem in D7. B&M admin link now showing up.
