Hi there,
I get this error when I try to install EE4: You don’t have permission to access /wp-admin/update.php on this server.
Please assist…
Thank you.

Hi Werner,
There may be an issue with the permissions on your WordPress site. Are you currently running any security-related plugins?
Try this alternative install method:
1. Locate the event-espresso folder on your computer and unzip it.
event-espresso
2. Login to your WordPress root with a SFTP or FTP client and browse to the WordPress plugins directory: wp-content/plugins.
wp-content/plugins
3. Now upload the event-espresso folder to the WordPress plugins directory.
4. Return to the WordPress admin and go to Plugins. Then activate Event Espresso.
