If you are seeing this error:

Zend-Optimizer-Not-Installed

 Zend Optimizer changed its name to Zend Guard between PHP version 5.2 and 5.3. Files encoded with Zend Optimzer using PHP 5.2 aren’t compatible with Zend Guard using PHP 5.3+. As you know our servers have been upgraded and PHP 5.2 is no longer supported. To ensure a smooth transition to 5.4, you will need to make sure your files are encoded to work with Zend Guard. It’s rather simple to activate Zend Guard using a custom phprc file, and instructions for that can be found here:
