Thanks, for the post. I have put up a new post 5 hours ago — You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page. jrmar

I’ve been going through all the posts looking for anything that might help me get my dashboard back up. I did an automatic install of 3.0 from 2.9,2 and ever since then I have not been able to log in to Admin/dashboard. I get a “… permissions denial…” message on a blank page.
I tried all kinds of suggestions, plug-ins and data base wp-capabilities no luck.
I had my host completely restore my whole site, so now I’m back to 2.9.2 but i still get the same message. After reading this post I went looking for the db.php file but could not find it.
What could be still preventing me from logging in? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I am looking at the profile.php page. Does anyone notice anything out of place here? Should there be all the spaces and extra lines with *

<?php
/**
* User Profile Administration Panel.
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Administration
*/

/**
* This is a profile page.
*
* @since unknown
* @var bool
*/
define(‘IS_PROFILE_PAGE’, true);

/** Load User Editing Page */
require_once(‘user-edit.php’);
?>

Thank you. I reset my password with no change in the end result. To do this I used a different computer and managed to get the log in page, which I had not been able to do.
When I tried to log in after changing pass word I noticed everything got stopped in WP-Admin/profile.php.
If I go into that file is there something I can look for code wise that could be stopping me logging in as Admin?

Also can someone tell me what prompts the message ” do not have sufficient permissions…” Where and what I might look for that would cause it. The site is still coming up and you can leave a comment. But I no longer see my “edit” option in the line below each entry on the online blog.

Thanks macmanx I will try this.

Here is what was suggested for this problem.

First you can see if this is caused by a plugin by using your FTP client to rename your wp-content/plugins directory temporarily.

Second you can look at your admin login to ensure it still has the admin capabilities –

Access your database via phpMyAdmin (most hosting providers offer this in their control panel), go to the wp_users table and find the row for your user_login . Note the ID of this row. Now, go to the wp_usermeta table and find the wp_capabilities row for your user_id . Set the value of this row to a:1:{s:13:”administrator”;b:1;}

I’ve been having the same identical problem and have been told to check a number of things but nothing seems to work. If you come across anything please let me know and I’ll do the same.

I will copy and paste the main suggestions for you here, after I find the post.

Thanks

If you do not have an admin page anymore 3.0 blocking it, how do you switch to default theme 2.9?

HI,
I’m having similar problems, site is there but no edit and no dashboard. Only get ” do not have permissions.” I don’t understand the “corrupted language error solution if site is only in English, but will try it, if it might apply.

Thanks,

Thanks. Sorry not sure what you are saying.

It seems that the 3.0 upgrade has wiped out a a previous page that allows one to log in as a user or administrator to the dashboard. I am still logged into the site as me, can leave a comment but no “edit” in choices.

I can see the site and it comes up and accepts comments apparently but I can’t get to the dashboard.

What file contains the information that would recognize me as administrator beside the information in the host data base already referenced or somewhere on my site?

I accessed my database and found that the value for the row was exactly what you suggested I replace it with. My user name is correct everything seems to be in order to allow a log in to the blog.

I continue to get a blank page with the words “‘you do not have sufficient permission to enter this page.”

Any thing else I could look at?

Thanks

Thanks.

I renamed the wp-content/plugins directory and there was no change in accessing the wp/admin page for the site. I assume this means no conflicts with plugins.

So now I’ll try finding the listing in the host control panel. I use PHP Webhosting.

Will update.. Need to have an other cup of coffee before I try this ??
