On admin/structure/messages/add page, the message text textarea does not show up ( as the attached screenshot), I still can save the message type. Even after I add some fields to the message type, the message text textarea still does not show up!

Same problem here. I have noticed that the first time when I was using hook_default_message_type_category() and hook_default_message_type(), the message text didn't show up, even though I have created the filed instance for those new bundles as described here: #2115741-5: Adding a category make message field disappear.

The I tried to create a new message type form the default "message_type" type and on the add page the message text field is missing to. It's kind of difficult to figure out what happens. The field instances are getting created correctly in the table field_config_instance.

Maybe it's related to the jquery version. I downgrade the jquery version to 1.7 via jQuery update module. Then disable, uninstall, clear all cache, reinstall the message module, the message field shows up and the problem does not appear any more.
But I'm not sure jquery version causes the problem.

Clearing cache wasn't enough and didn't touch jquery. But doing this helped:
Disable all message modules -> Manually deleted all message related tables from database -> reenable modules -> message text reappears !

Hi,

I had this same issue. Couldn't see the message text on the message type edit form. I had to uninstall every message module. then go delete every message related table in the database like field_data_field_message_type and cache_entity_message. make sure to text search for "message" in your database to find every message table. Re-enabling the message module after that seems to work.

Same issue here. I disable message (and dependencies), uninstalled the modules - re-enabled and all was well.

Sorry people, disabling and re-enabling the module while deleting all related tables doesn't seem like a real solution to me, especially not on a production system.

I encounter this problem on a multilingual Drupal Commons site. Editing a message type does work correctly when the field language is set to Language independent (und). The problem appears when it is set to one of the two languages (en, nl).
