One click plugin install (Dashboard) not working | WordPress.org

Everytime I attempt to do the plugin install from the dashboard, I get an error page that says “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.” I tried to change the permissions on the folders through FTP, and I am the admin so I should have all privileges. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I’m having the same problem. I upgraded two different blogs to WordPress 2.7. I am the super-administrator for both. One works no problem. The other gives me the same error as above.

solved it:

installed this plugin:
http://www.im-web-gefunden.de/wordpress-plugins/role-manager/

and noticed that this capability where not present:

Delete Plugins
Edit Plugins
Install Plugins
Update Plugins

I’ve created them and activated them for the administrator account

after that everyting worked just fine!

Cheers!

@ Margje – Thank you so much for your reply. I already had the Role Manager plugin installed and activated on my WP blog. All I had to do was add the “Install Plugins” capability (I already had the other 3 capabilities) and it works fine now! I would have never thought to do that. Thanks again!
