Yup, it did mess up the user accounts... i commented the htpasswd section

workaround the logon loop is to restore the /tmp permissions ownership, you
where right. Somehow, the ossec-wui script changes the permissions in the
/tmp/ folder of ubuntu, not the /var/ossec/tmp permission or even the
/var/www/ossec-wui/tmp. I thinks there's a bug in the script, permission
changing wise. I followed this :

For now, it seems to work. But i still cannot comprehend why did it create
the accounts ossec, ossecr and ossecm...Can you guys check out the script
and give me a hand?

The ossec-hids install.sh adds those users.  That's normal.

The problem is with the ossec-wui setup.sh clobbering the /tmp permissions. It needs some fixing...
