Start PHP debugging [message #1067590]

Hi all,

As a newbee I'm trying to get XDebug working for PHP debugging.
I've installed: Zend Eclipse for PHP Developers Version: 3.2.0.

When I look at "Window/Preferences/PHP/Debug/Installed Debuggers" it shows:
Zend Debugger 10000
XDebug 9000

Does this mean that XDebug is installed completely and that no adjustments have to be made to php.ini ?

The thing is, I can add Breakpoints to my php-file, but when running in debugmode, the program doesnt stop at the breakpoints. So something is not right...

Thanks,
PjotrB

I had the same problem but now it works. I will try to explain what I have made. If it is not clear, ask again:

1.) Make sure that no Debugging or Running process is going on.
2.) Select from the menu Run->Debug Configurations...
On the left side of this window you should select PHP Web Application and there the name of your PHP-file. Choose the Debugger tab on the right side and at Server Debugger choose XDebug (instead of Zender). Then click on Debug

When I made this the Debugger stopped at the breakpoints.

The only thing I still find uncomfortable is that I always have to click the red button after the Debugging process is over before I can start it again (this problem didn't occur during the Java Debugging).
