Mysql physical database location on WIndows

I work with Linux, but also have to work with Windows, because most commercial applications are in Windows and the manufacturers will not switch to Linux.

There are already commercial applications that are already adopting MySQL instead of Microsoft SQL Server.


And sometimes is not where the data files are, because they use the built instead of the default MySQL installation.

Just need to find the file named "my.ini", this file contains the location of the database.

Why is it useful?

  • To delete duplicate files, when going from MySQL to local MySQL for reasons of bugs and new releases. 
  • To make backups with Cobian Backup, which is free and the manufacturer is selling the source code.

Citrix XenServer - XenServer Tools not installed error fix

I am implementing a project that consists of installing a server with Windows Server 2012 Standart 64 bit . 
So far so good , to save money with fixed servers , will be used virtualization with Citrix XenServer 6.2.0 that is now free , thanks Citrix .

Citrix XenServer  is one of the best virtualization tools, because they do not consume too much memory and hard disk space .
For those working in Unix / Linux is a breakthrough in configurations terminal via ssh .

I had no problem to install and create virtual machines , but I had a problem that the management platform always said that the VM did not have XenServer Tools installed .


The problem is that they had already installed .




I'm using XenServer management tool that works in 32-bit (x86), so I thought reinstalling first x64 driver, citrixvssx64.msi and citrixguestx64.msi, then installwizzard.msi in the VM.


And voila, the error that XenServer Tools was not installed is resolved. 





In another virtual machine had to uninstall the XenServer Tools, update Windows by Windows Update, Installing XenServer Tools x86 manually and then run the procedure for automatic installation of XenServer Tools.




And everything is working as it should.
