I am not able to update wordpress url and site url on AWS EC2

I installed #Wordpress_by_Bitnami in an instance of #AWS_EC2. After installation I wanted to change my wordpress url and site url; however, the options are disabled. How am I able to change these?

Also I need to change the admin email address. I put the email address in, but they didn't send me any OTP to confirm the email.

**I have launched many EC2 instances, installed wordpress, and changed the email many times in the settings, but the problem is same. Is there any setting related to modifying an email or site url when I launch the #Wordpress_by_Bitnami? Here's the screenshot!
