phpMyAdmin - Error Incorrect format parameter restoring sql database on phpAdmin using Mamp

 When I tried to restore a mysql database on phpAdmin, I got the following error:

phpMyAdmin - Error

Incorrect format parameter


after a small search found the following article

https://sitenetic.com/techie/mamp-error-phpmyadmin-error-incorrect-format-parameter/

The problem for me was that the database dump file was bigger than 32MB, and php was limited to 8/32 MB

The fast solution for me, on MAMP console, selected Languages>PHP> and Open the default template

There I changed the following parameter

post_max_size = 128M

and the following parameter

upload_max_filesize = 128M

MAMP offered to restart the servers, and I did, and then, I was able to restore my database!

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.

vmware.exe - No Disk

I was trying to run vmware last nigh, and started receiving an error message, trying to open vmware, the moment I tried to opened, it a received the error. Vmware player was working OK, but I wanted to create a new virtual machine so I had to find a solution. The error message was: wmware.exe - No Disk There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk3\DR2. I looked everywhere, including the registry, trying to find a configuration option or something that could be wrong, and nothing helped. Then I discovered a couple of  entries on vmware site that helped solving it. Apparently there is something wrong with the preferences file, locate in  %APPDATA%\VMware\ preferences .ini for  Windows  ~/.vmware/ preferences  for  Linux Not wanting to spend all night trying to solve it, I first deleted de preferences.ini file without looking into it much with  no luck. The solution: I deleted the directory VMWare, first I ...
