I have always used domain/wp-admin when I want to access my Dashboard. But recently, after upgrading to 2.9.2, I get the above error when I try to login or hit that page already logged in. My workaround is clicking edit on an article on my site and going in that way.
My dashboard page is now located at:
domain/wp-admin/admin.php?page=stats
and it doesn't contain the usual helpful dashboard info I get.
When I try to access domain/wp-admin/index.php I get a 500 error.
Any suggestions?
I would upload the /wp-admin folder again

Hi samboll - meaning just take the whole wp-admin folder from the installation files and overwrite whats on my server? (sorry, I'm not *super* techy)
Wouldn't that wipe out any changes I've made to all the other files in the admin folder like options etc? Or are those all store elsewhere?
Thx
it won't wipe out anything
all data is stored in the database - not in any files

Ok, tried what you suggested via ftp but no luck. Deleted the site cache but no dice. Thanks for the suggestion. If you have any other, let me know.
Have you tried deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

I just upgraded to 2.9.2 ... everything was working fine before.
I click "Dashboard" in Admin and get "You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page."
This wasn't a manual upgrade. This was 1-click. Like I've always done.
