Could not find grapher 'qwingraph.exe' ida - reverse-engineering

When looking for xrefs to a string in memory, I keep getting the following error:
Found no sources on it online, any direction on what might be the cause & how to fix?
Note: I use ida freeware 7.0, Windows 10

I had the same problem with IDA Freeware 7.0. Reinstallation did nothing.
Downloading qwingraph from an external source fixed it for me.
You can either compile it yourself from the official source or download an executable file from a repository.
Once you have the executable (qwingraph.exe), place it in your IDA home directory (e. g. C:\Program Files\IDA Freeware 7.0).
Note: If qwingraph.exe is downloaded from the repository linked above, the QtCore4 and QtGui4 dlls (which can be found in the same repository) might also be mandatory. That is so because the executable uses Qt4, and recent versions of IDA Freeware use Qt5, thus causing an incompatibility.

Is happening to me as well. Fresh install, no qwingraph.exe.

Reinstall IDA Freeware 7.0, you should have qwingraph.exe in your IDA Freeware directory.

How can i upgrade my Octave version to the latest one?

I have the 4.0.3 Octave version on my machine.
and I would like to upgrade my version using windows.
Can someone tell me please the steps to follow?
Thanks.
If you want to remove v4.0.3, the complete answer will depend on how you installed that version in the first place.
If you used an executable installer, then there should be an 'uninstall' option available. On Windows 10, you can sometimes right click on the shortcut in the startmenu and an Uninstall option will appear. Otherwise you can follow the directions at this link to navigate through the Settings to the Apps & Features window, which lists everything installed and will provide an Uninstall option.
If you used a zip package to 'install' Octave 4.0.3 just by unzipping it to a folder on your hard drive, then no uninstall process is necessary. you can just delete the folder and shortcuts manually.
You can have multiple octave versions installed next to each other, the folders will have version numbers to prevent them from overwriting themselves.
To install the latest version (5.1.0 as of this answer, although 5.2.0 will be released very soon):
You can find the installation files for Windows by going to the Octave download page and clicking 'Windows'. There will be several file options there. Most people choose the first one (octave-5.1.0-w64-installer.exe) for 64bit systems. You can just download that or one of the other .exe versions, execute that program, and follow the prompts. If for some reason you would rather download a zip package and do a manual setup, I suggest you follow the instructions at the Octave for Microsoft Windows Wiki page to make sure everything is configured correctly.

MySQL Install the UDF library "mysqludf_sys" on a Windows Server 2016

For 2 weeks I'm looking for a proper tutorial on how to fully install the library "lib_mysqludf_sys".
I got the .dll from a Russian site, because there seems to be no other for 64bit systems. I have successfully installed the procedure and also created the function, but whenever I want to call a file the whole database crashes. I conclude that the DLL file is faulty or that I forgot something to install.
can someone please explain to me how to use the UDF library to call files on a Windows Server 2016 64bit properly implied in the MySQL?
that would help me a lot, thank you!
Download the Windows 64 bit version from here:
https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework/tree/master/data/exploits/mysql
Copy it to here or equivalent for your MySQL installation:
c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.7\lib\plugin\lib_mysqludf_sys_64.dll
Install and verify as per the instructions here:
https://osandamalith.com/2018/02/11/mysql-udf-exploitation/
Looks like you are using MySQL 57/earlier version. For the library, I suggest to control it with "dependency walker". See if there is any problem with dependency libraries. At lease KERNEL32.DLL and MSCVTR.DLL (Visual C++ Redistrubatable file) should be there without any warning on root level.
If you have the code, I suggest you to recompile it with mygwin64. There are many items needs to be fixed to compiled it. Following link is a good link for UDF DLL compiles

There something similar, follow my answer here

Compiling sqlite-winrt for using SQL in WinRT/WP app with SQLite

I'm trying to use the sqlite-winrt library at https://sqlwinrt.codeplex.com (cf. http://blogs.windows.com/windows_phone/b/wpdev/archive/2013/05/30/sqlite-winrt-wrapper-for-windows-phone.aspx) because I need to access an SQLite database via SQL commands in a WinRT 8.1 and a WP8 app and this library seems the only available option.
Anyway, there is no binary release and if I try compiling the source I get several link errors for unresolved externals against the SQLite DLL. I posted an issue at codeplex but got no reply yet, so I was wondering if anyone had already managed to successfully compile this lib and how (or if you know of any viable alternative for RT8.1 and WP8). Here is what I did:
downloaded the latest source from the site.
downloaded and installed 2 VSIX from http://www.sqlite.org/download.html: sqlite-winrt81-3080002.vsix for RT 8.1 and sqlite-wp80-winrt-3080100.vsix for WP.
executed the powershell scripts in each subfolder of the source code solution, which are required to update the projects with newer releases of the SQLite for WinRT extension. The current versions of the scripts refer to SQLite for WinRT 8.1 (prerelease) which is the same I downloaded above.
opened the VS2013 solution and removed the RT project (I just need RT8.1 and WP, this was for WinRT 8.0).
5) built the solution, which failed with link errors.
If I see the RT8.1 project properties, I can confirm the reference to SQLite is under C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v8.1\ExtensionSDKs\SQLite.WinRT81\3.8.0.2.
Did anyone manage to use this lib? Thanks!
I also once had that problem. I fix it by editing the project file manually. At that time, the powershell script updating the wrong path. That's why I always failed when compiling my project. After I edit the project file using external text editor (I use sublime text), the projects are linked correctly.
You can try DatabasesCx. It is another SQLite Wrapper using Windows Runtime Component technology. It is freeware distributed as precompiled binary. You can find the details at http://www.almanacsoft.com/databasescx

MySQL++ Application error at launch

I compiled MySQL++ with no issues. When I launched some of the executables (resetdb.exe and simple1.exe) they suggest to run to test if the installation has been successful, the first error I got was that libmysql.dll was missing.
Adding its path to the PATH environment variable did not fix the problem, even after launching a new command prompt; I had to copy the DLL in the directory where MySQL++ executables are.
Now the DLL is found, but I get this error:
simple1.exe - Application error
The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b).
Click OK to close the application.
even launching from the command line, I get no more information than these.
Thank you for any help!
MySQL 5.5 -
MySQL++ 3.0.9 -
Windows 7 64 bits -
MINGW32 -
GCC 4.4.0
0xC000007B is a Windows error that means the executable is corrupted. It could refer either to simple1.exe or to one of the DLLs it's linking against.
Some reasons this could happen:
You're mixing toolchains in an incompatible way. In your case, you may have built simple1.exe using pieces built by MinGW GCC and pieces built by Visual C++. MinGW should be compatible with any pure C DLL built by Visual C++, including the MySQL C API DLL. However, you may have other pieces interfering. MinGW isn't compatible with VC++ at the C++ level, but then, it shouldn't have linked at all if this were your problem.
You didn't follow the MySQL C API import library build steps in README-MinGW.txt. You either missed a step, or skipped it entirely and are trying to use the import library that shipped with MySQL.
In your previous gyrations, you ended up with a corrupt object file, which got linked in. Try saying make clean all at the top level of MySQL++ to force a complete rebuild.
You're mixing versions of MySQL or MySQL++. If you have more than one version of each on the system, make sure you're consistent in their use. That is, build the C API import library from the same DLL you run the programs against, use exrun.bat to run the examples to ensure you're using the just-built version of the MySQL++ DLL instead of another you have in your PATH, etc.
Additionally, I note that you're using an older version of MySQL++. If you were on Linux, I could understand that as some distributions still ship with 3.0.9. But since you have to build MySQL++ from source with MinGW, I don't see why you're not using 3.1.0. Did you get a binary build from somewhere?
As for your PATH problem, did you restart the MinGW shell after doing this? PATH updates don't affect running programs; they keep the value they saw when they started.

Which version TortoiseHG and Mercurial are compatible and stable for Linux RedHat ?

I am thinking about installing Mercurial and TortoiseHG for our redhat linux server. I found out there are many package versions. I searched online and found out some people encounter incompatible problems when they install Mercurial and TortoiseHG. If anyone has successfully install TortoiseHG and Mercurial, may I know what versions you used for TortoiseHG and Mercurial ?
I used command "cat /etc/redhat-release" to find the version of my linux is"
Red Hat ENterprise Linux CLient release 5.3 (Tikarga) and the bits number is "x86_64". Python is version 2.4.3. I do not need to use the latest version as long as they are stable and compatible.
Thank you very much,
TortoiseHG is mainly known for being a Windows shell extention, but there also seems to be a Linux version.
Take a look at the description on the web site (I made the important parts bold):
TortoiseHg is a Windows shell extension and a series of applications for the Mercurial distributed revision control system. It also includes a Gnome/Nautilus extension and a CLI wrapper application so the TortoiseHg tools can be used on non-Windows platforms.
and:
Supported Platforms
Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7
Command line support via thg
Mac OS X port via source install
Gnome/Nautilus integration
Note the link in the second part.
Plus, there are non-Windows versions on the download page.
There is also this section in the release notes which describes which TortoiseHG version should be used with which Mercurial version if you have to install from source (which seems to be the case whan you're using Linux, as I understood it).
EDIT:
Sorry, but I have absolutely no clue about Linux, so I can't help you about the installation. What I can tell you is that msi files are usually Windows installer files.
As I said, I have no clue about Linux, but I can hardly imagine that you can get a Windows installer to work on Linux.
Where exactly did you see the TortoiseHG packages? The Nautilus link I posted above doesn't have any msi downloads (or I don't see them). The only msi downloads that I can find are the Windows-only downloads on the download page.
