Migrated to Server 2008 R2 now have Zend Error

[bryweb]

I am running Cinvoice 7.1 I believe

I just moved my servers to Windows Server 2008 R2 and now running PHP Version 5.2.12, I had to turn "short_open_tag = On" from being off in PHP.ini because of the scripts written as <? instead of <?php, I now have an issue of the home page giving me "Zend Optimizer not installed - In order to run it, please install the freely available Zend Optimizer, version 2.1.0 or later." But I am under the understanding Zend is included in PHP 5, but I went ahead and installed Zend 3.3.3 and still get the error, I also tried zend.ze1_compatibility_mode = On but that did not help either.

End of my PHP.ini has,

[Zend]
zend_extension_manager.optimizer_ts="C:\Program Files (x86)\Zend\ZendOptimizer-3.3.0\lib\Optimizer-3.3.0"
zend_extension_ts="C:\Program Files (x86)\Zend\ZendOptimizer-3.3.0\lib\ZendExtensionManager.dll"


Do you have any suggestions, I really need to get my billing back online.

Thanks,

Bryan

Well this is not a Cinvoice problem per say.

The Zend Coding used to protect CInvoices hard work and programming has not come out with the decoder "Zend Optimizer" that works with Server 2008 R2, IIS 7.5, FastCGI for PHP version 5.2.12 and up - (Which is the IIS.NET quick install combo) Users on Zend forum have been complaining for months needing this combo supported with no luck.

So unless someone from ForPerfect wants to send me an un-coded version (or recoded in a different way like ioncube), which I would not blame them for not being able to do..... I need to come up with another plan because Zend Support does not look like it will be coming up with a solution soon.

Hope this helps someone else.
