 * Hi,
 * I want to import a WordPress database. I have installed the plugin Ari Adminer
   and launched it in MODAL view.
    Steps taken: Click on Server on the header. Click
   on Create Database. Enter a new database name, collation utf8_general_ci and 
   click on SAVE. Database is created. Click on Import (left-hand column) Import
   page displays. File Import – select Import_SQL.gz 11,523KB, and execute. File
   uploads. Page refreshs – keft-hand margin disappears, selected file disappears–
   page is now blank and is displaying IMPORT. CONSOLE error: Failed to load resource:
   the server responded with a status of 500 (Internal Server Error)
 * I have also tried to import the file from the webserver – I renamed the file 
   to adminer.sql.gz and saved it to the www folder on the wordpress site. Error:
   File does not exist.
 * I am using Chrome on Windows 10 Home 64 bit. WordPress 4.9.9, AdMiner 4.6.3 4.7.1

 * Hello,
 * A blank screen appears when a PHP error occurs. Please check web server error
   log and specify error(s) so we can investigate the problem.

 * It seems limit for PHP process is set to 128 MB. Increase this parameter. Check
   memory_limit parameter in php.ini file.
