Hi @MGRI,

It seems the owner of wp-config.php has been changed to bitnami. Could you run the following command:

sudo chown daemon:bitnami /opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-config.php

And check if that solves the issue?

Hello @michiel,
Thank you so much it solved the issue.

But i have a question why permissions and ownership are changing when we try to update our config ? so in this case whenever i will update my wordpress by SSH it will broke right ? or do you have some best practics to do so.

Because i'm facing the same issue for another site, i did update the wp-config.php and the site goes down

Thanks a lot for the help

Hi @MGRI,

Don't know why or when the permissions settings were changed but you can take a look at this video tutorial in which we explain how to recover the permissions in our WordPress solution

Happy to help!
