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!

The solution: I deleted the directory VMWare, first I typed cd %APPDATA% in a command wi

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.

Adding sound to VMWare Lion 1.7.3 computer

As my research on  running Lion on a PC, one of the problems I found was installing audio. The process looked rather simple, install the following driver: EnsoniqAudioPCI_v1.0.3_Lion.pkg No big science there, the speaker audio appeared, itunes ran without a problem, but still no sound. My solution, really studid really: Go to System Preferences Select Sound, then Output Chose Line Out, The problem was solved and it works OK, not great but OK.
