 * I have searched this site and found a few posts – but nothing with any work arounds
   that actually work on my site.
 * I have installed 2.0 and it runs fine the first time I have logged in. After 
   that – it just quits and nothing I do allows me back in. I just keep getting “
   You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”
 * I have tried deleting the cache folder, changing the metauser table, reinstalling(
   about 7 times now). This is really frustrating that no one has a real workaround
   for this issue.
 * HELP!!!

 * I also have just done a clean install of 2.0.4 on an Apache 2 server, with MySQL
   5.0, PHP 4. The install appears to work without problems. The database and tables
   are correct as far as I can tell. When I login using the admin id and the generated
   password, I get the notorious “You do not have sufficient permissions to access
   this page” message for the file /wp-admin/profile.php. I have tried all the workarounds
   relevant to this message that I could find in the forums, but none have fixed
   the problem. If there is a known resolution I’d appreciate knowing about it.
