VirtueMart not showing in admin component menu

[edogg]

I built a sample site for testing. Upon completion I exported the SQL to the new database and installed Virtue Mart 2.0 but now it does not show in the component menu. I can get to it by pointing the URL to index.php?option=com_virtuemart.

Any suggestions are welcomed.

2.0.0-RC-2M

have you tried the "discover" in extension manager?

do you have "system cache" turned on?

[edogg]

Tried the "Discover" function; No results.
System Cache is 'OFF'.

NOTE: I had the same problem with another component and I had to run a SQL query to delete some menu items from the database. After the query the component showed up in the admin component menu. I am wondering if the same function may be required here and if so, what the query details might be.

That might be what you need to do

Ran the following:
DELETE FROM `jos_menu` WHERE link LIKE '%com_virtuemart%';
DELETE FROM jos_extensions WHERE element = 'com_virtuemart';
DELETE FROM jos_assets WHERE name='com_virtuemart';

Then reinstalled the VirtueMart Component. Still does not show in the admin component menu.

Please try the new version.... The old version installs only properly, when you use english as default BE language

Hello,

I'm from the netherlands, so sorry for my bad english.

Bur i've got the same problem... I've installed VM2.0 RC3.
After installation there is no link at the component menu.

Also if I choose for discover in the extension manager, there is nothing.
My cache settings are off.

This is the newest version, right?

Please help me!?
