This is probably going to sound vague, but I have two C# SharePoint projects within a solution.
I have been working on Project 1 for a while and it gets deployed to my local instance of SharePoint on my development machine.
Project 1 consists of 1 Package, 1 Feature, 1 Module and a number of Application Pages.
I started work on Project 2 yesterday. It consists of 1 Package, 1 Feature, 1 Module and a number of Application Pages.
I set Project 2 to my default project in the solution and start debugging. I cannot see my feature in the Site Settings->Manage site features.
Both were created from the SharePoint 2010 Project template. I am unsure on how to diagnose this one.
The configuration between Project 1 and 2 in terms of Package/Feature/Module looks fine.
In a nutshell, Project 2 has:

Active Deployment Configuration - No Activation (this does not make a difference when set to Default)

</Elements>
UPDATE
The solution is now showing up under Farm Solutions, but I cannot see the Feature SSFDM in the site features. The SharePoint 2010 Administration Service was not running initially.
