Is there any way to view dpm() data other than printing it on page? I have an issue with dpm() in that it never seems to return data (and before anyone asks:


Yes devel is installed
Yes I am logged in as admin
Yes print $messages is set
Yes the permissions are correctly set
No the data set is not empty ( dpm($node) and dpm($content) return an empty field)
Yes it did work previously / on ocassion


it does return a message field, but it is just empty).

Is there any other way to view dpm() data, like using Drush or something? I know I should really 'fix the dpm issue' but I have asked around and there does not seem to be an answer.
I know you say you are logged in as admin but even so just check the permission "Access developer information" is checked for the admin role just in case that makes a difference.

I've also heard of dpm not working as a result of modules not being uninstalled before they are deleted. Maybe try this module to see if that helps.

Another option would be to see if kpr() works instead.
