I was having this problem with a production site with civicrm, so I set up a very basic wamp site without civicrm, and with essentially no data, I have the same problem.

I should add that I am using Drupal 6.26 but I was having the same issue with 6.24 on the active site.

Also probably related
on the wamp site, when I undertake to create a new profile, I get
Create Profile
First Name: found no valid user with that name.
Middle Name: found no valid user with that name.
Last Name: found no valid user with that name.

on the production site, when I attempt to register as a new user, I get:
User account
First Name: found no valid post with that title.
Middle Name: found no valid post with that title.
Last Name: found no valid post with that title.

Thanks for any assistance you can give

Hi Doug,

Did you ever find a solution to this problem? I'm having it as as well, and this seems like a fundamental hole in the documentation.
