   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.

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

   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!
