I checked server permissions and admin permissions, still unable to activate/deactivate plugins.

If I activate/deactivate a plugin, then immediately run upgrade.php, the plugin becomes active/deactive. Otherwise, plugs.php will say my task was completed, but will not be.

Ok, we'll just close it. It probably has to do with my database. It is messy, I'll just clean up and then try again.

This bug still exists. It is not your DB. I had the same issue with my WP 2.0 installation. I also saw on the support forums that others are having the same issue. I think it has to do with a php settings.
Fortunatly I was able to hack a fix and posted it to my blog. In brief: modify the wp-admin/plugins.php file to include an exit; after the header(’Location: XXX’); commands.
