How to disable Restricted Area window?

Posted on February 20, 2014

I installed WordPress following the article “One-click WordPress installation on Ubuntu 13.10”. After that, I login in to Restricted Area window with username and password, which are located in /root/WORDPRESS (wp-admin/ folder is protected by Apache’s .htaccess.)

But now, when I visit my site this message is showing every time. On every page.

How to disable it?

Thanks.

Very thanks @kamaln7 , its works now.

Yes, wish I knew this too. In addition How to change user and pass. would be helpful too. <br> <br>There is no .htaccess in /wp-admin/ either. I spent a half-hour looking around with an ftp client. Found just about everything else!! <br> <br>I emailed Tech support and received the standard "we don’t handle…’ response. Clearly they kindly and graciously did handle the WP/Ubuntu13 install! <br> <br>Anyways, hope someone responds soon. Thank you.

I think it’s in <code>/etc/apache2/apache2.conf</code>
