One thing to put on your checklist when you are having complete lack of functionality problems like that is the /load_out.txt file that is now generated on the cRIO when it boots. It basically tells you if you've forgotten a required module or plugged it into the wrong slot. It even will tell you if you accidentally bent one of the DB15 pins over (on the backplane) and the module LOOKS like it's plugged in, but there is no connection (rather difficult to debug otherwise).
You can look here for detailed information:
