Problems after upgrading Wordpress

I've have this problem a couple of times after upgrading Wordpress to the latest version. Trying to go to the admin page in Wordpress, I received the message that the page does not exist with the following line in the address bar, after my site name


http://..../wp-admin/upgrade.php?_wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2F

I do not remember what I did the last time, I believe I reinstalled the update from Goddady's site. But this time around it did not work. After doing some research I found this at the Wordpress site:

http://wordpress.org/support/topic/upgrade-to-34

The post by chowsir had the solution for me. The way I see it it is very simple, if you read the line. The page that does not exist is upgrade.php, so I look into my wp-admin directory, and it is true, the file is not there, there are other files with similar names update.php, upgrade-functions.php, update-core.php, but the file upgrade.php is not there, at least, not anymore.

Go to http://wordpress.org/download/ and download wordpress again
unzip the files and go int wp-admin folder
copy the file upgrade.php to your site.

I received a message about the need to update the database, gave it a click, and now is working again.

Hope it helps, if not, now I know what to do the third time around.

com.pivotmobile.android.metrics file on my Android phone

I recently ran an scan on my phone using MVISION, the scan indicated that com.pivotmobile.android.metrics was sideloaded and that it should be deleted. I could not find any valuable information of its origin on the web, but looking at the application tab on my phone setting, I could find out that it was installed by Claro, my mobile service provider. So I went ahead and deleted, without a problem Take this with a little caution (backup before deleting, bla, bla, bla), but it looks to be a mobile service provider tracking file.

http://localhost/sys/en/classic/login/login page not found installing ProcessMaker

I have been trying to install ProcessMaker using Wamp to avoid having several installations of MySQL, Apache and PHP. After serveral attemps I kept getting errors and could not make it work. My goal was to setup ProcessMaker in the following way. I tried using an alias instead of a Virtual Host. http://localhost/ProcessMaker As it turns out, it cannot be done that way. Whatever you do, you will not make it work (I guess there is a way, but yet have to find one, and would be not supported). The correct way would be something like http://ProcessMaker.localhost This would requiere changes in my hosts file and I guess I will have to go that way. The reference I found was this: http://forum.processmaker.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=249 Hopes to save you some time.

Workout pauses while running with Nikeplus on the iphone

This weekend I had my first real run with my Iphone and Nikeplus sensor. Usually I use my iphone only when running in a treadmill, and my ipod nano for running outside, buy since this was a 21K run and had the need for a phone, just in case, I decided to use my iphone. After 6 miles, things got weird, my iphone paused the workout for no apparent reason, so I began receiving the message, pausing workout, sometimes it came back on it´s own, sometimes I had to press play again, with my wet hands to continue. I tried moving it to another pocket to avoid any contact, but, it was locked, so there was no way that I could pause it by contact. The solution As always, easer that you may imagine. I took the earplugs out, and voila, the problem apparently was that there was a false contact in the earplugs, I was using the earplugs included with the ipod, with them, you cand do two things while running, turn the volume up and down, and ..... PAUSE THE WORKOUT so, my advice to you, use conve...
