    I moved the site from a windows to a new Linux host I did the same thing with another site very similar The other one works fine This one works but I cannot access the Dashboard
    After log in from http:…mysite.com/wp-admin I can see that I am logged in but I can see only the top bar not the dashboard
    If I click on the link at the top bar (Upper Left) sends me to the page (top bar stays there) No other options on the top bar like edit page etc .. only the Howdy admin and logout option ( drop down ) to the upper right corner
    I tried everything I could with no luck
    Restored everything many times after unsuccessfully disabled themes, plugins tried many different settings for wp-config.php .htacces recreated Searched the internet everywhere I could with no luck

    If you have any idea or can point me to the right direction PLEASE

    Thank you in advance

    All the best

    after unsuccessfully disabled themes, plugins

    Why were you “unsuccessful” in disabling plugins and theme?

    I solved the problem by checking the dg6w8sjt8y_usermeta table to see if the user has administrator rights
    I noticed that the prefix was the same but with some capital leters
    It was DG6w8sjT8y_capabilities instead of dg6w8sjt8y_capabilities
    I changed that and the problem was solved
    Looks like WP for a reason probably within new installation WP does not update table entries but adds new ones
    Or does not update tables but creates new Tables with different prefix
    dg6w8sjt8y_capabilities was not updated but a new entry was created DG6w8sjT8y_capabilities
    So the user was named admin but had no admin privileges
