Most probably some error with admin menu creation. Execute below query in database and reinstall component

delete from jos_menu where url like '%com_gpstools%';

Marco Boere OFFLINE User Posts: 2 Karma: 0	I had the same error that started this topic. While following this option: Most probably some error with admin menu creation. Execute below query in database and reinstall component delete from jos_menu where url like '%com_gpstools%'; I found there was no component_id specified. I manually set it to the next available number, refreshed the cache and now all shows up.

Paul de Valmency OFFLINE User Posts: 13 Karma: 0	I have just tried to install GPS Tools and have the same error reported above. I've looked in the database and there is no table called 'jos_menu'. What do I do now? Thanks in advance. Paul.

It's OK, I found and fixed the issue.

It's caused by the installer not setting the component_id in the xxx_menu table (replace 'xxx' with your database prefix).

For those who have found this error and don't know what to do, I did the following:
Locate the record in the xxx_extensions table for the 'gps_tools' component.
Make a note of the extension_id.
Locate the record in the xxx_menu table with the title 'GPSTools' and then set the component_id to the extension_id above.

Log into the admin menu and GPSTools should now appear in the list of components.
