But like a few thousand products/projects out there, we really can't
try to support all of them with all their foibles.

I used to work for Zend.

They would be VERY peeved to have you saying this, because it's simply
not true, and they know it.

You can also assume that there are people on this list who go scuba
diving.  That does not make scuba gear questions on-topic.

Ignore people who bitch at you for posting, especially when you said
up-front that you weren't getting any support from Zend, and when
you've obviously tried several different things.

If the trial support is supposed to match the paid support, then I
guess you now know that the support can be slow.

I personally think you weren't that far off, though you could have
posted that you were just using the trial version for evaluation,
which I don't think was in the original.
