    wordpress gives me 404 errors when i click on things in the dashboard. operations like upgrade wordpress, upgrade plugin, install plugin, deactivate plugin

    i reset the permalinks to see if i can fix, but it doesn’t help.
    anyway, i get 404 error on pages like this one
    http://site.com/wp-admin/plugin-install.php

    when i refresh the page, the command sometimes goes through.

    i suspect malware but the scans that I ran all came up clean. i have also uploaded a fresh copy of wordpress, upgraded all my plugins.

    my .htaccess looks like this

    RewriteOptions inherit

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

# END WordPress

    any ideas on how to fix? thanks!

    404 indicates failure to communicate with the server. Reasons for this failure to communicate with the server can vary.

    Check the server error log for your hosting account for any specific error message. Ask your webhost for assistance to locate them.

    If you cannot find error logs or if you don’t find any helpful info in the error logs, try Enabling debugging
