# Troubleshooting the Python Profiler

## Missing profiles in the profile search page{% #missing-profiles-in-the-profile-search-page %}

If you've configured the profiler and don't see profiles in the profile search page, turn on [debug mode](https://docs.datadoghq.com/tracing/troubleshooting/#debugging-and-logging) and [open a support ticket](https://docs.datadoghq.com/help/) with debug files and the following information:

- Operating system type and version (for example, Linux Ubuntu 20.04)
- Runtime type, version, and vendor (for example, Python 3.9.5)

Refer to the python APM client [troubleshooting documentation](https://ddtrace.readthedocs.io/en/stable/troubleshooting.html) for additional guidance.
