Does it appear in the .dvi file?
In a case like this, I would comment out everything between
\begin{document} and \tableofcontents, and see if that works. If so, put
stuff back in, one command at a time. If not, put an \end{document} after
the first section title, and try again. Eventually, you must get to a
situation in which the command works. If not, you must have a corrupted
latex.ltx.
