Problem Description

When user tries to place a stair or railing he gets a message  that "Section file is missing please find/load section file".

Only  "Schematic" stairs and "Chairrail" railing are working.

Steps to Resolve

Check the configuration variable STRUCTURAL_SHAPES value for the dataset you are using.  Both the stairs and railing catalogs will use the structural sections found in the xml defined by the above configuration variable.
