Automatic Upgrade from 2.7 to 2.7.1 – You do not have sufficient permissions

    I have searched everywhere for a fix for this.

    I have a couple of 2.7 installs that I am trying to use the automatic upgrade for. I always get the message:

    “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

    I have tried numerous things, such as deactivating all my plugins. No luck. I have no idea what to do!

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Did you by any chance change $table_prefix in wp-config.php as part of the upgrade? If so there are SQL updates within the options table in the database that need to be made.

    I get this error message :

    No stvwlf I did not. If it helps I also cannot use the install new plugin feature either.

    Same issue here!

    I worked out out thanks to this post

    Here is the solution in a nutshell.

    I went to wp-admin/options.php

    Changed the db version to the last version I had installed (8204)

    It then forced a database upgrade and fixed the problem!

    Simple solution to a pain in the butt problem!
