{mosimage} I have chosen to run for a two-year seat on the Waitsfield Select Board because I care a great deal for our town, our neighboring towns, and the watershed that holds all of us. My hope is to play a valuable part in the important collaborative work of keeping our community of people and lands healthy and thriving into the future.
I moved to the Mad River Valley in 2000 and feel incredibly fortunate to live in a place where community engagement remains alive and well. I was born in New England and grew up in a family where civic engagement was a way of life, with parents who served on historical societies and church vestries and everything in between. In my own work, I have been an educator and a nonprofit leader, and I have served on several boards both within the Mad River Valley and beyond.
I believe that the role of the select board is to represent the varied constituents of our town in the process of addressing and making informed decisions on the issues that we collectively identify as important for our future. I think a healthy select board engages different perspectives and actively seeks input from the community, acting both inclusively and decisively in order to chart a community course that respects tradition, infuses creativity, and deploys both common sense and thorough research.
In 2008, I think the broad issues of greatest significance to our community, and which the select board should continue to address, all center around a theme of balance: balancing smart residential development with conservation; balancing business expansion with the town's rural character; balancing responsiveness to immediate needs with investment in long-term sustainability. These are challenging economic times for communities of all sizes across the United States, and our community is no exception. I think we are exceptional, however, in that we are of a size and a spirit that enables and encourages us to tackle these challenges together.
I feel that I am qualified to step into this shared work for several reasons. First, I have a deep commitment to this Valley for the long term. My husband and I are raising our family here, and it is our hope that our children and grandchildren will be able to choose to live here, in this vital, self-sufficient, beautiful place that community members sustained and created through the years. Second, through my job as executive director of the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, I work with rural communities across northern New England and the Adirondacks on a daily basis. I continually gain useful insights into opportunities and challenges faced by many communities of our size and profile. Third, I'm a good listener and a good worker. I value the process of learning from those around me, changing my perspective when reasonable evidence persuades me to do so, and rolling up my sleeves to bring about thoughtful action -- all critical ingredients that make small "d" democracy work.
My hope for Waitsfield and the broader Valley community is that we are able to combine the best of Yankee frugality with a creative, dynamic vision to conserve what we love and grow what we need in order to become a model of sustainability and sufficiency. I look forward to working with the Select Board and the community to bring about this hope, and I welcome your ideas and your support.

Patrick set a personal record for laps in the lead position in what was her first race since Daytona even reaching the front of the line. Radio communication between Patrick & her pit suggested a part of her car was torn off by the shoe when her car ran over it. [ESPN]

Grind It Salt & Pepper Mills
The Salt & Pepper Mills are beautifully made and the elongated top fits perfectly into your hand, so you can season with ease. It has a crush/grind mechanism so you can use it for both salt crystals and peppercorns. The idea for this was spawned from playing with and twisting the Oil Can (link to oil can) out of habit then it hit me that the same design could be replicated for the grinder. This is the case with a lot of my range; one product has led me to coming up with the next one. I think both the Oil Can and the Salt & Pepper Mills are stunning and it's important to have a great looking kitchen with beautiful, functional tools in it – it just makes you want to spend more time in there!
Product Features
These mills gently crush peppercorns and salt crystals allowing you to season your dishes to perfection.
Care & Usage
Clean gently with a damp cloth
Do not clean with abrasive cloths or cleaners
What's Included
Grinder with solid 18/10 stainless steel construction

Hikers encounter large paw print in snow along Squam Range
Hiker wonders if print could be from mountain lion
Hikers in the snow along the Squam Range found a very big paw print Sunday.
Jerry Bird of Tuftonboro said he was hiking around 11:45 a.m. when he encountered the prints in the snow.
He immediately wondered if there were now mountain lions in the Southern White Mountains and whether they hunt in teams as the prints would suggest.
"We were on the Crawford Ridgepole trail between Mount Morgan trail and Mount Webster. It had snowed during the early morning hours. While we were hiking, there was a brief flurry, which probably caused the dusting of granular snow that you see in the paw prints," he said of photos he sent along.
"There were actually three parallel sets, each about a quarter mile apart, headed from the ridge down toward the lake," he said.
It would stand to reason that same tracks that the animals were setting reflect the reason they might be out hunting, because of the ability to track prey in fresh snow.
The attached pictures show a glove sized for an extra-large hand.
"I estimate it's 5 inches across, which makes the cat track 3.5 to 4 inches across," Bird said.
"Based on the indentation, this was a heavy animal," he said. "I'm full of questions: Do they hunt as a team? It was very interesting that the tracks were all heading the same direction, so not from the same animal. That indicates some kind of a coordinated approach.
"Since cats are solitary animals, could this be a mother and two cubs?
"Are there mountain lions in the area? The tracks seem too big for a bobcat. Even if one argued that it could be a bobcat, the other two tracks where nearly as large, and if you assume they are cubs, I suspect the tracks are too big for a bobcat cub."
Fish and Game officials were unavailable on the holiday to answer Jerry's questions, but stay tuned.
And chime in on what you think on our Escape Outside Facebook Page.

Eagle Scouts know to "Be Prepared," but nobody's prepared for this.
When a fire started in 18-year-old Reid Vaenuku's house last March, everyone rushed outside to safety.
Well, not everyone. One member of the family of nine was still inside — Reid's brother Keio.
Ignoring the fact that smoke was filling the house and his lungs, Reid rushed inside to find Keio still sleeping; he woke his brother and led him to safety. Firefighters later told the family that the roof could easily have collapsed on top of the brothers.
Five months after that dramatic day, the Boy Scouts of America has given Reid its top award for bravery: the Honor Medal with Crossed Palms, given for "unusual heroism and extraordinary skill or resourcefulness in saving or attempting to save life at extreme risk to self."
Just 19 people earned the prestigious medal last year, and fewer than 300 Scouts and Scouters have received it since its inception in 1938.
Reid was honored at a special ceremony yesterday at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints building in Colleyville, Tex.
As you would expect, everyone's calling Reid a hero. But does he feel like one?
"Honestly I don't," he told Dallas television station KTVT. "I just feel like a brother. That's it."

Hello, everyone.
First of all Merry Christmas to all the readers,
Today, I will write yet another tutorial on how to hack Facebook and dealing with a lot of problems along the way. This tutorial will be highly detailed with everything, including what you will need and all the thinking process necessary to successfully hack a Facebook account.
I will be covering:
1) Key loggers
2) Rats
3) Phishing (Well, not really.)
4) Social Engineering
5) How not to get traced
Why am I writing this? Well, I am sick and tired of new members asking the same damn question every single day and it's annoying as hell!
Not only that, but all the other tutorials regarding 'How to Hack Facebook' are outdated and no longer work because they are not including the security updates that Facebook implemented not so long ago.
I have written,
[Tutorial] Why you shouldn't phish, keylog, SE on Facebook.
(Click here to view)
Bypassing Facebook security [Tutorial] w/ Pictures (Click here to view)
You should check those tutorials out for further information regarding what I am about to talk about in here.
Let's begin.
I have seen that 99.9% of the tutorials on HF as of now recommend Phishing, keylogging, RATing, and even Social Engineering (SE) as the most notable methods to take over a Facebook account and essentially "hack it"
Before, we go any further. Let me say that Facebook cannot be hacked with a program of any kind. If you see anyone claiming that they have a program to hack Facebook, they are lying.
Now, why are key loggers, phishers, social engineering, and some RATs bad?
-Key loggers only record the keys pressed on the keyboard.
-Phishers essentially do the exact same thing as key loggers, however the slave must do it manually.
-Social Engineering is the trickiest and I would probably say the hardest method of stealing Facebook account nowadays.
-RATs are probably the best road to take if you plan to steal a Facebook account because you have access to Socks5. Socks5 being their own system.
Key logger I recommend: Rapzo Logger v 1.5

1) Why that key logger? Well, it's Free and it works. I tested it.
How to set it up:
1)(Click here to view)
2)(Click here to view)
After you have done that above, simply build your server. Click Test me to be sure it works. Be sure to select what kind of e-mail you want to use and put the e-mail and the password.
Now, considering that this keylogger is free, you will need to get your file crypted.
Crypting is essentially making your server or bot, or whatever you want to call it, FUD (Full undetected), being not detected by any Anti Virus or at least UD (Undetected), being only being detected by a few Anti virus.
Why crypt? Well, so your file doesn't get detected and immediately deleted as soon as the target opens the file.
2) Let's move on to RATs,
I see the same question all the time, Which is the best/favorite RAT?
-Based on my personal experience, I can say that DarkComet and Cybergate are the best for RATs being free.
You can find DarkComet here: http://darkcomet-rat.com/
You can find CyberGate here: http://website.cybergate-rat.org/mainpage/
I will not go into teaching you how to set those up because there are already a ton of tutorials on how to do that.
I did a quick search to find tuts and these looked good:
Setting up DarkComet
Setup Cybergate
(Will Publish This Soon As I Get The time)
3) Phishing
-I will not go into phishing since it's against the rules.
4) Social Engineering
-Ah, the classic stories of "My friend hacked my facebook" or "How can I hack my friend?" or my personal favorite "How to hack my girlfriend's Facebook?"
A common mistake by layman who do not know much about the internet is giving information out without actually knowing that they are giving the information out.
Social Engineering on Facebook seems like a joke considering that you aren't going to ask the person their password and e-mail for you to log in. Even if they do in fact give you their information voluntarily, it's pointless.
Why is it pointless? Well, Facebook has become smarter on their security.
I wrote about the reasons in dept on my other tutorial: Why you shouldn't phish, keylog, SE on Facebook.
(Click here to view)
Basically, it comes down to this.
Facebook will detect 'Suspicion' on the account that you are logging in and it will not allow you to log in under that account simply because their logs of the original account owner do not match with your IP or the IP your are hidden behind.
1) Suspicion
2) Security question
3) Confirm Identity
4) Confirm identity by identifying the friends on that account.
Now to retrieve back to the very beginning of this tutorial, I said that Key logging, Phishing, Social Engineering, and RATs were the common methods associated with hacking a Facebook account.
I will respectfully correct my mistake and as well as the other tutorials on here.
1) Even if you do manage to steal the password and e-mail using Keylogs, the problem of suspicion will appear.
2) Even if you do manage to steal the password and e-mail using Phishing, the problem of suspicion will appear.
3) Even if you do manage to crack the password out of your target through Social Engineering, the problem of suspicion will appear.
4) RATs are probably and definitely the best way to go into "hacking" a Facebook account simply because you will have full access to their computers. You can change their info through computers and the problem of suspicion will not appear.
RATs are NOT the only possible way to get in! Keylogging, Phishing, and Social Engineering might work as well.
I believe that Facebook compares the ranges of IP based on the ISP of the target. Now, if that's the case...Simply do a whois on the slave using the RAT.
If you do not know what whois is, it's basically a query that searches where the target is located. Normally you can double click on the slave when they are online on the RAT and see where they are from and look at their IP.
Now, you don't really need a RAT to tell you where the slave lives or his IP. If you already have his IP or location through other methods such as reverting you're good to go.
However, if you do not have any information at all what so ever, you can try searching on these sites to revert info about the target.
Now, once you have an IP or ISP, or location the next part is looking for a Sock5 to hide behind so Facebook thinks that you are only using a different computer in the same area. You can also spoof the IP, but I will not go into that.
So, after all that work, you still can't take over their accounts?
I thought about this method as I was showing a friend through Teamviewer the pictures that Facebook was showing me to identify the target's friends. And obviously, I was clueless because I did not know of the people.
What did I do? Well, as you can see the picture #4:
1) Suspicion
2) Security question
3) Confirm Identity
4) Confirm identity by identifying the friends on that account.
Facebook provides the names of the target's friends. So, use that information to essentially bypass the security of identification by searching those names on Facebook search and matching the faces based on the Target's friends.
Note that will need an extra Facebook account to search, otherwise Facebook does not let you search. Close the 'Suspicion' page and log in to your extra or your actual Facebook account and search for the Target's friends.
Be sure to notice where your target lives so on the results you can compare whether if the friend is the matching face or not. Be sure to notice the names of the friends as well.
For example, if the name choices are:
George Bush
Adolf Hitler
Barrack Obama
Mohammed Ali
Lee Chang
And the picture given is of an middle eastern descent looking person, you should obviously go with the name that sounds middle eastern.
Once you match the faces for the identification questions. You should be able to get in without a problem.
To wrap it up,
I will warn you one one important thing, if you do not have access to their e-mails. They will get an e-mail notifying that someone is trying to log in on their accounts and your IP will be shown to them.
So, what that means is to always hide behind a VPN or a proxy so you can't be traced back.
Try to take over their e-mails if you want or simply delete the notification e-mails so they do not notice.
Taking over the e-mail will be an obvious sign that they got hacked and they might try to retrieve the e-mail password, so be sure to change the e-mail password and security questions immediately so they cannot get it back. Only take over the e-mail once you have completely stolen and gained access to the Facebook account because they can easily change the e-mail on the Facebook account and you'll be screwed.
Well, I believe that this is all I have to say.
I was going to originally sell this as an ebook for $10, but since I am nice I released it for free. As This is Christmas Time. So, I decided to share this information out for free.

President Barack Obama has painted a bleak picture of what could happen to the economy if lawmakers do not agree on a pact to cut the deficit in time to avoid a U.S. default. He warned the economy could slip back into recession and lose millions more jobs.
The reality is that economists don't know exactly what would happen. What they do know is that we would stray into territory marked "Here Be Dragons" on the economy's map.
At a news conference on Monday Obama warned that failure to reach a deal on raising the nation's debt limit could "potentially create another recession." He outlined what could happen if buyers of U.S. debt get spooked by a failure to raise the government's borrowing authority, currently maxed out at $14.3 trillion.
Obama, trying to bring home the potential impact on consumers, warned of a "crisis of confidence in the markets" that could boost interest rates sharply on car loans, mortgages and credit cards.
The Treasury has warned that by Aug. 2 it will be unable to pay all the government's bills. Some budget analysts have pointed out that there is more than enough money coming into the Treasury to pay the interest on existing debt. But without authority to borrow more money, the government would have to stop paying some of its bills.
At that point, the Treasury faces uncharted waters. Though it has some discretion on which bills to pay, much of the federal budget is set by statute. That means Treasury could face legal challenges as it begins holding back payments. Because the government has never had to resort to such measures, there aren't a lot of precedents to guide government lawyers advising Treasury officials on which bills to stop paying.
Even as Congress and the White House play chicken over the debt talks, financial markets remain remarkably unperturbed at the prospect of a U.S. default. Some investors say that's because such an outcome is all but unthinkable.
"People just don't see it happening," said David Zervos, market strategist for Jefferies & Co. "Frankly, it has to be a very remote possibility. The problem is, it has to be a remote possibility because it's such an unfathomable thing."
Some market analyst have suggested that financial markets might even maintain equilibrium following a short-term default — if it sparked a meaningful plan to bring the budget back in balance. According to this line of thinking, investors wouldn't mind waiting a few weeks for the dividend checks on their Treasury bonds if it meant the U.S. government was on a more solid fiscal course.
Even if agreement is reached to raise the debt ceiling, the risks to the economy will remain without a long-term plan to balance the budget. Several agencies have warned of possible downgrades to the United States' sterling credit rating if a debt-reduction plan isn't in place before the 2012 president election. Such a downgrade would force many investment funds to sell their holdings, because they are required to hold only AAA-rated paper. That would force interest rates higher.
In any case, interest rates are likely heading higher no matter what kind of budget deal is reached. The Federal Reserve, which has cut short-term rates close to zero, will have to begin raising them again at some point. When it does, the cost of rolling over the existing debt will rise, adding a further burden to the federal budget.
"If we go back to the long-term average of over the last 20 years of the interest costs to the Treasury, by the end of the decade we're going to have an extra $850 billion of interest spending per year," said Lawrence Lindsey, former White House chief economist in the George W. Bush administration. "When talking about deficit reductions like we had this year of $37 billion, the interest cost is going to swamp any gains we make."

I moved this discussion from the WPI forum as it relates to a problem with PHP and FastCGI...
Basically, I have a W2K8R2 server running Drupal (7.8), which utilizes PHP/FastCGI and IIS 7.5. The problem is that any version of PHP over 5.3.6 causes most of my PHP pages in Drupal to return a 500 error, which always results in two things:
1. The application log reports the following:
Faulting application name: php-cgi.exe, version: 184.108.40.206, time stamp: 0x4e537f4b
Faulting module name: MSVCR90.dll, version: 9.0.30729.4940, time stamp: 0x4ca2ef57
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x0003af1c
Faulting process id: 0x5e0
Faulting application start time: 0x01cc6e500c8224e3
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\v5.3\php-cgi.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\WinSxS\x86_microsoft.vc90.crt_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.4940_none_50916076bcb9a742\MSVCR90.dll
Report Id: 4ae1b50f-da43-11e0-bdc3-00155d646402
2. IIS failed request logging reports that 'The FastCGI process exited unexpectedly'.
The application pool is set to classic mode using the v2.0 .NET framework and I have checked for permission problems using Process Monitor. Both the x86 and x64 VC09 SP1 runtimes are installed. I also have PHP Manager installed but it does not report any problems, and phpinfo() runs fine.
The most frustrating part about this problem is that I can not get any logging out of PHP itself, despite turning on logging options for PHP and FastCGI. If I stay with version 5.3.6, everything works fine. Unfortunately there is a vulnerability with PHP prior to 5.3.8, so I am required to get PHP patched or shut down our Drupal development, and I have spent the last two days working on this problemw ith no success.

Thanks for the information and moving the post / thread.
I suggest that you look at the php.ini settings for Time / Zone and error message display.
Guide for Time / Zones http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date-default-timezone-set.php .
The post install steps for PHP are a problem.
You might check this Forum post http://forums.iis.net/p/1180851/1992846.aspx#1992846 it has the extensions
and much of the current problems covered.
I will help after you check the above items.

Thanks for helping out, Martin. I checked the time zone setting both in the php.ini file and on the system, both seem to be okay. Here are all of my FastCGI-related settings in the php.ini file (which were mostly set up by WPI automatically, under [WebPIChanges]):
extension_dir="C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\v5.3\ext\"
I made sure that paths and permissions are correct.
Sep 08, 2011 03:55 PM|Kalio|LINK
Also, as a quick test, I tried using a very minimal php.ini file to see what would happen, but it did not change anything.
log_errors = On
extension_dir="C:\Program Files (x86)\PHP\v5.3\ext\"
Sep 08, 2011 04:42 PM|HCamper|LINK
That looks ok for php.ini settings.
You can comment out extensions
for now.
Next step is to make sure PHP Manager
and your FastCGI and Recycling settings match and the Handlers

Ok, I commented those out and re-reviewed the guide you linked for configuring FastCGI in IIS. PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS and instanceMaxRequests are both set to 10000 and the PHPRC value is set correctly. I could not find any problems with the FastCGI settings or in PHP Manager.
Prehaps one more thing worth noting... if I comment out php_pdo_sqlsrv.dll and php_sqlsrv.dll in the php.ini file, I get an error message for all PHP pages in Drupal instead of just some of them, though this is to be expected because I'm using an SQL database. The error is "PHP Fatal error: Undefined class constant 'SQLSRV_ATTR_DIRECT_QUERY' in D:\inetpub\wwwroot\Home\includes\database\sqlsrv\database.inc on line 59". The interesting thing about this, though.. is the fact that it is, at least, actually writing the error to the error log file. So we know that there should not be a problem with error log, since it will write error events if I 'purposely break things'. I still wish I knew why my original problem with these 500 errors does not write anything in the log, or why it only effects some PHP pages but not others.

Forgot to add, open_basedir was missing from my php.ini file so I added it with it and set it to the base directory of my website.
Sep 09, 2011 10:30 AM|HCamper|LINK
So your getting SQL Driver and extension errors. You updates the open_basedir thats ok.
Could you look at the steps for installing the SQL Server Driver for PHP http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/699/install-the-sql-server-driver-for-php/
download the latest version from Microsoft Download Center.
Use the guide for the SQL Server Driver for PHP add to php.ini you can have both MySQL Server Extension and SQL Server 2008 in
the php.ini.
After you finish the configuration you need to verify / test that php.exe is operating correct
at the command line. Then verify that php can run in IIS Server using test.php.
Create a test.php at C:\inetpub\wwwroot\test.php with <? phpinfo(); ?> it will be used just for verification
you should move it to some other place later for security and safety.
Start from an Elevated Command prompt > cd C:\inetpub\wwwroot then php /? for help then
run php.exe test.php you should display the php information and there should be no errors.
If there are errors check the php-errors.log and you can post the information in the forum.
If there are no errors then browse to the test.php using a browser for http:// localhost / test.php
which should display the php information as decorated html.
If you get the php information display then php is working.
Sorry if this takes time but each part needs to be verified to to find who or what is failing.
If the tests have worked then use the PHP manager to peform the same verifications.
Note: Each time you run the tests in the IIS Server you should do a restart
you may find that php-cgi.exe is running one or more times in the Task Manager.

I already have SQL driver for PHP installed and it shows up in phpinfo(). I believe the reason for the error was because I commented out the SQL driver extensions (php_pdo_sqlsrv.dll and php_sqlsrv.dll) but only did so at a test. I was merely trying to prove that error logging was capable of working by doing this.
I have never had a problem with phpinfo(), though I did as you said and created my own 'test.php' file, and got the same result as I do when I check phpinfo() in PHP Manager. That is to say, there are no problems to report. I always run the iisreset command after every change I make, and so far I have not found duplicate copies of php-cgi.exe running.
I will try obtaining the latest version of the PHP SQL drivers and reinstalling them though just in case...
Sep 11, 2011 08:57 AM|HCamper|LINK
Just in case your still looking http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=20098 Microsoft Download Center
for the SQL PHP Drivers 2.0 release. Ok. So the PHP engine is working so far so good.:D.
The remaining steps are with problems related to the the Blog the files folders permissions and the "Application Pool" and if it is used
urlRewrite Rules or files.
Part of the pre-install for most of the Blogs and CMS programs is to check that the "IUSR" "IIS_USRS" have full access
read,execute,list permissions to the folders. In some cases you need to allow some files to have write permissions.
The permissions settings are usually convered in the Blog or CMS install guide.
Check that any required Temp Upload Download folders have been created as part of pre-install and that the IUSR,IIS_USRS
have correct permissions.
Check that the SQL Server ( MySQL Server or SQL 2008 R2 Server)
has a user who has rights to the existing database or the empty database that will be used in the install / setup for the Blog CMS.
Then after verifying the steps above check that the "Application Pool" is set to the correct version of the Dot Net Framework
the Identity and if it is "Classic" or Integrated". The Blog or CMS Install guide usually has information for what is to be set.
You can start with Net 2.0 and "Classic" mode and test if that works.
One of the problems you may be having with the IIS Server is the "Inherit" permissions setting.
If you go to the Security Tab and Advanced section and using Windows Explorer or IIS Manager look at the check box
for "Inherit" Permissions change as needed.

I installed the SQLSRV drivers for PHP but it looks like they are the same version I already had. It did not make a difference. I am somewhat convinced it may be a problem related to the SQL in some way, as it seems only pages that perform database operations seem to be the ones generating the 500 error...
I am not sure what you mean by the blog or CMS install guide/program, but I know my application pool settings are correct and I pretty much ruled out file permissions by using the SysInternals process monitor tool. There are no problems with permissions on the SQL server either.
Again, I feel it's worth noting that if I revert PHP back to 5.3.6, everything works. At this point.. it just doesn't seem like it could be a configuration problem. It really looks like there must be a genuine problem with PHP 5.3.7+ and some combination of the following:
SQLSRV VC09 driver for PHP 2.0.1
Drupal 7.6+
SQLSRV modules for Drupal 7.x-1.1
Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 64-bit
Microsoft SQL 2008 SP2 64-bit
Is anyone out there using the same combination of software, I wonder?
I think I will try uninstalling everything and rebuilding the Drupal enviroment from scratch to see if I end up with the same problem.
Sep 12, 2011 11:10 AM|HCamper|LINK
Ok, So the SQL PHP Driver is ok.
The pages for database may be the problem agreed and maybe plugins libaries ro others that are part of the directories.
What I suspect is the seperate permissions for Folders File NTFS Systems permissions in the Drupal Site are a problem.
You can check using Windows Explorer and the Security Tab.
If you use IIS Manager then with Content View instead of Features View.
Sorry for the generic reference CMS / Blog Drupal http://drupal.org/documentation/install guide.
The Web Platform suggested guide for Drupal http://learn.iis.net/page.aspx/505/install-drupal-on-iis/ on IIS Server.
Yes This "Again, I feel it's worth noting that if I revert PHP back to 5.3.6" is "everything works". is true.
If you decide to move on or revert:
You should leave the PHP version 5.3.8 install as it it is working.
Since you have the PHP Manager you can switch to the PHP 5.3.6 version as needed.
You could start with a fresh archive or install of the Drupal and see if that works.
Thank you sticking through this it is time consuming and fustrating.:D

Hi @ panmanphil,
Exact same error post the information.
What version of the Visual Studio run time installer for the "MSVCR90.dll" you have updates and security patches ?
Same Exception code post the information.
Nothing in php-error.log that is good.
You have this " fails with a message about unable to set named parameters" you should check
Brian Swans Blog for use of the PHP Sql Server driver for parameters.
Have you checked the SQL Server PHP driver Forum http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqldriverforphp/thread/3b38a360-047c-4b31-8531-6978d328f73d .

For the Microsoft Foundation Library errors "MSVCR90.dll, version: 9.0.30729.6161"
visit the Microsoft Download Center and Download the installer(s) for the Visual Studio 2008 runtimes.
Save the files to hard disk add or modify the file name from the download center
VS2008-SPX-vcredist-NN.exe NN being one for X86 and X64 SPX if this is a service pack. You should have at least two packages.
Do not run the Visual Studio 2008 runtime installers online id it asks to repair or remove take the remove option first.
After the Visual Studio 20008 runtime installer has finished run the installer again.
Look at Search (Google or Bing) on the "Faulting module name: MSVCR90.dll, version: 9.0.30729.6161" results.
http://www.google.com/search?q=Faulting+module+name%3A+MSVCR90.dll%2C+version%3A+9.0.30729.6161&rls=com.microsoft:en-us&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&startIndex=&startPage=1&rlz=1I7GUEA_en .
It would appear that one or more Software Installers can corrupt the MFC C++ libraries.
For the PHP SQL Driver coding use Brian Swans examples and the MSDN Documentation.
A very old is the standard "Hello world" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hello_world_program this may seem dumb
seasoned programmers use this method.
For PHP SQL Driver this is "Hello Sql Server" then use the working examples to check your code.

Hi @ panmanphil,
Thanks for the update & information :D.
So you and the SQL Server PHP Driver Forums deserve a big cheers :)
So the overlay code by Drupal and PDO is "beating" up the Microsoft driver.
I still would keep a watch on the Visual Studio 2008 runtime installs.
There are alot of conflicts with third party vendors and the runtimes.

Thank you so much panmanphil! This did the trick and solved my problems. I never did get a chance to rebuild our whole enviroment from scratch, but thankfully, I won't need to. Thanks again!

Oct 14, 2011 08:45 PM|HCamper|LINK
Hello @ xxrsdsdk209,
The other users in this thread so far have found a solution.:D.
Could you post the PHP code or post the IIS server log errors for failures or success ?
The alternate for IIS 7.0 IIS 7.5 Server is Enable and Turn on "Failed Request Tracing"
You can ( Google or Bing ) for the guides for FRT which should lead the the IIS Net Library.
Could you re-check the "Application Pools" and Permissions for Accounts and users.
Read the IIS Net Library guides:

Police: Dog hoarder in jail after raid
Police found 48 dogs at Santa Fe County home
A former veterinarian who lost her license was arrested early Tuesday morning after police found evidence she was practicing medicine illegally.
Debra Clopton lost her medical license more than a year ago, but police found drugs allowed to be possessed only by licensed vets, including one to euthanize dogs, inside her house in Edgewood, authorities said. Officials also confiscated 48 dogs who police said were living in filthy conditions.
The dogs are now being held as evidence and housed at the Santa Fe Animal Shelter. After vets examine the dogs and see if any of them are sick or neglected, Clopton may be also charged with animal abuse.
Authorities said many of Clopton's dogs are shy and nervous. Some violently shake and police say a few look malnourished.
Deputies worked alongside animal control officers all night Monday to chase after and collect the dozens of dogs. They say depending on the outcome of the case and with the permission of a judge, the dogs may be euthanized if they are sick or aggressive, or they may be adopted out.
If the charges are cleared against Clopton, she'll be able to get 10 dogs back because that's the maximum allowed in Santa Fe County.
Clopton is also wanted in Rio Rancho for not having her dogs registered and vaccinated when she lived there several months ago. She is also the target of an investigation after dead and sick cats were found at her foreclosed Rio Rancho home.
The New Mexico Board of Veterinary Medicine is taking Clopton to court to try and force her to stop practicing medicine and treating animals without her license.

Seacoast Home and Garden Show taking place 10 am to 6 pm Saturday at the Whittemore Center Arena.
DURHAM — From bird feeders and garden gnomes, to bathtubs and gutter cleaners, the Seacoast Home and Garden Show this weekend is offering homeowners some fresh ideas for home and garden projects.
The show, coinciding with the beginning of spring, drew more than 200 booths to University of New Hampshire's Whittemore Center Arena on Saturday.
Stephanie Mudgett, 57, drove all the way from Berlin to attend the Home and Garden Show. She said she is working on renovating her century-old house and is looking for some ideas.
Nicole Rembisz, 31, said she came to the Home and Garden Show to look for new patio furniture and landscaping ideas, as she recently purchased a home in Lee.
Saturday morning, Rembisz was one of multiple visitors sitting comfortably in a handcrafted wood patio chair, with a foot rest, made by Big Bear Chair out of York, Maine. The company's owner, James Taylor, said all patio and garden furniture by Big Bear Chair is Adirondack style, and is made of Western Red Cedar with waterproof glue.
"We are having a really good show, and it just opened," said Taylor around 11 a.m. on Saturday.
Also on display Saturday were self-cleaning gutters made by Nature's Way Gutter Systems, located in Deerfield. Owner Dan Bishop said while homeowners typically have to clean their gutters once a year, the self-cleaning gutters implement covers and a system that washes out debris with regular drainage.
"You'll never have to clean a gutter again," said Bishop, who was offering visitors free estimates on the self-cleaning gutter installation at Saturday's show.
A crowd of people was seen at the Tico Art booth, which showcased handcrafted Costa Rican hardwoods, such as puzzle boxes with secret compartments, bowls, and kitchen accessories.
"Have you seen the woodworking man? Oh my God, they're awesome," said Manchester resident Ellen Weist about the Tico Art booth.
Weist, 49, said she came to the show because she is trying to start a community garden in Manchester. On Saturday, she was looking at items relating to plants and landscaping, as well as the solar power installation being offered by Harmony Energy Works.George Horrocks, president of Harmony Energy Works, said 60 to 70 percent of visitors who stopped by his company's booth have signed up for a site survey of their home, for a solar assessment and cost estimate. He said since a year ago, much more people are interested in going solar. Horrocks attributed this increase to PSNH's recent rise in rates for energy delivery, as well as federal tax credits for solar power expiring in 2016.
Those looking to get a start on gardening were also eyeing the U-Gro hydroponic garden systems, which allows gardeners to grow plants in their backyards without the use of soil.
U-Gro General Manager Jim Horne explained the system, developed in Barnstead, uses coconut fiber rather than soil, meaning that plants are not competing for nutrients. The system results in no weeds, and attracts a minimal amount of insects, he said.
The 19th annual Seacoast Home and Garden Show continues today, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Events at this Venue
Hereford Museum and Art Gallery, housed in a spectacular Victorian gothic building, has been exhibiting artefacts and works of fine and decorative art connected with the local area since 1874. Although the exterior of the building has changed very little the museum and gallery have kept up with the times.
The exhibitions at Hereford Museum and Art Gallery begin in the foyer of the building with a regularly changing small display in the foyer case. Don't miss the Kenchester mosaic on your way upstairs and the changing art exhibitions on the stairwell walls. The museum is full of interesting local history with hands-on elements for all the family.
Around the walls of the museum is a timeline created by artist Harry Brockway. This sets out the major periods of history and depicts local events, places or museum objects. The exhibits themselves are then ordered according to both the historical era to which they belong and to one of four main themes – Herefordshire as a cultural county, a productive county, a natural county and a border county. Exhibits include a hive of live bees, a two-headed calf, a two metre long fish, swords of every shape and size, elements of costume and textiles and much more besides.
Both the Hereford Museum and Art Gallery have a programme of activities and workshops.
