Comments.Text: What do you mean by 'had to do it manually'?  Sounds like there may have been some issues early in your installation process.

Comments.Text: Agree with Aidan - you need to put in the step-by-step process of how you installed if you are hoping others can give useful pointers

Comments.Text: Are any of the other CiviCRM modules enabled (e.g. CiviCRM Theme)? If so you may need to disable them before you disable the main CiviCRM module.

Title: Facing issues with CiviCRM installation on Drupal 7
ThreadText: # Facing issues with CiviCRM installation on Drupal 7
  
  (Asked by: username_0 on 2018-03-05)
  
  I manage to install CiviCRM on Drupal 7 ( had to do it manually ) and ran installation program successfully.
  
  However, I am facing following issues :
  
  1) civiCRM option is not visible on top menu
  After investigating found recommended solution is to deselect/select civicrm module in Drupal. However, the checkbox seems to be disabled and not allowing to deselect (?). I even cleared all cache in Drupal but that did not fix the issue.
  
  2) civicrm\_membership table missing in MySQL database, I see other tables though.
  
  Would be great if someone can let me know how to fix these...
  
  Thanks
