                </general>
            </groups>
        </mymodule >
    </sections>
</config>

I can see the section under Customer Tab, but when I click on it, it gives me 404 Not found error

My system.log is empty and shows nothing.

Please help to resolve.

It looks like your adminhtml.xml might be missing a couple tags. When adding new configuration areas, it should look like this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config>
    <acl>
        <resources>
            <admin>
                <children>
                    <system>
                        <children>
                            <config>
                                <children>
                                    <mymodule>
                                        <title>Config Tag Name Goes Here</title>
                                    </mymodule>
                                </children>
                            </config>
                        </children>
                    </system>
                </children>
            </admin>
        </resources>
    </acl>
</config>

I think you're missing the system > children > config > children part. Try adding that and it should work. (You may need to log out and log back in).
