Removing Bitnami Banner- WordPress Lightsail

To remove the Bitnami from your wordpress site running on AWS Lightsail do the following.

1. Connect

Login to Amazon Light Sail and connect to your WordPress instance.

2. Disable the Banner

sudo /opt/bitnami/apache2/bnconfig --disable_banner 1

3. Restart apache

sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh restart apache

Common Errors – APPNAME

The following error is what you will get if you copy the commands in the documentation directly.

sudo /opt/bitnami/apps/APPNAME/bnconfig --disable_banner 1
sudo: /opt/bitnami/apps/APPNAME/bnconfig: command not found

If you are not using apache you might need to search for the config scripts. For the banner removal you would be looking for a web server like apache or nginx.

sudo find /opt/bitnami -name bnconfig
