Permission for Control Panel

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Somehow in the process of updating or migrating my OS installation, something must have gone wrong with the permissions: no matter which user I'm logged in with (including user with admin and manager privileges), when I try accessing the control panel for a site I get a "You are not authorized to access this page." message. The only item on the control panel that I can access is the "Content" tab. I've tried various tweaks in the permissions settings but none have been successful. Does anyone have suggestions? In worst case I could roll back to a previous backup but I'd rather not have to do that.
Thanks,
Harald.

Okay, solved my own problem. I must have forgotten to set the -p switch when copying the backup files. All is well again.

The solution... please?

in the cp command while copying i suppose. -p switch or --preserve is used to preserve the specified attributes (default: mode,ownership,timestamps) and security contexts. http://www.linuxmanpages.com/man1/cp.1.php

Hey thank you very much!
