BuddyPress.org

I’m having trouble to run the buddypress 1.6 update wizard, as it just says ‘You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.’ even when i’m logged in as admin.

I feel this problem is most likely caused by the way I have buddypress set up on a seperate wordpress install to my main wordpress site. Basically I have two wordpress sites, with the sub-site (buddypress site) getting the users and their roles from the main wordpress site, so the users are shared.

Does anyone know how I can get buddypress to successfully update with the current set up I have?

Here is the code I use to share users from the main wordpress site:

USE USERS FROM MAIN WORDPRESS
================================

In ALL of my installs:

in wp-config.php:

added just above /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */:

define(‘CUSTOM_CAPABILITIES_PREFIX’, ‘wp_’);

in wp-includes/capabilities.php:

replaced:
$this->cap_key = $wpdb->prefix . ‘capabilities’;

with:
if (defined (‘CUSTOM_CAPABILITIES_PREFIX’)) {
$this->cap_key = CUSTOM_CAPABILITIES_PREFIX . ‘capabilities’;
}
else { $this->cap_key = $wpdb->prefix . ‘capabilities’;
}

In all installs EXCEPT the original:

in wp-config.php:
added just above /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */:

define (‘WPLANG’, ”);
define(‘CUSTOM_USER_TABLE’, ‘wp_users’);
define(‘CUSTOM_USER_META_TABLE’, ‘wp_usermeta’);
