After installing a WordPress server on AWS using 'bitnami-wordpress-5.7.2' as the instance, now I am not able to change the default theme using the wp-admin. When I try to activate or live preview a theme, the default theme is displayed and no change is observed.
What could be the issue?

Can you check the permissions of the wp-content and wp-content/themes folders? They should be 755 (owner=write, group=read, public=read).
If, for some reason, the user on your instance that runs the webserver (probably www or www-data) is not the owner of that directory but in the group that owns that directory it should be 775 (owner=write, group=write, public=read)
