Wordpress RPM does not show plugin update

Question

We have a multi-user installation of Wordpress 4.2.2 RPM installed on CentOS 6.6, and on the network plug-ins panel the add plug-in button and plug-in updates are not showing up (we are 100% sure that some plugins are not updated).

The odd thing is that with the /wp-admin/network/plugin-install.php header /wp-admin/network/plugin-install.php he says that we do not have enough permissions to access the page. Please note that we have a super admin.

So far, we have tried to comment on the define( 'DISALLOW_FILE_MODS', true ); configuration line define( 'DISALLOW_FILE_MODS', true ); and change all the salt in the configuration ... no luck.

We tested our server connection with api.wordpress.org:443 and planet.wordpress.org:443 without any problems.

Also note that we have a second WP installation on the same server (not multi-network), which works as intended.

Any hint is welcome, thanks!

Answer 1

We found out that this is a configuration problem.

We needed to save define('AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED', true); , and we commented on define( 'DISALLOW_FILE_MODS', true ); . But DISALLOW_FILE_MODS needs to be set to false, and not just to comment otherwise the default value is true, I think.
