PDT - (x)debug local PHP script [message #61695]

Hello all

I'm trying to debug a local php script. PDT, PHP, xdebug etc are all
installed and I can use xdebug to do remote debugging of websites. But now
I try to debug a local script with XDebug.

When I add a script for debugging, the debugger doesn't stop and just runs
the script.

What I did was:
* Open Debug Dialog
* double clicked on PHP script
* Entered a name
* Choose Xdebug as debugger (PHP executable is set correctly)
* Selected the PHP file
* Tried with and without break at first line

Is there something special you need to do to debug a local script with
XDebug?

Thanks in advance
Johan Vandeweerd

XDebug 2.0.2
PHP 5.2.4
PDT 1.0 20070910
Mac OsX Leopard/WinXP
Apache 2.2.6

Hi Johan, The first thing to check is whether xdebug is actually
configured. try running phpinfo in your script and checking the output.
The ini file it says that it is using will be in some temporary
directory which is a modified copy of the one found in the same
directory as the php executable.

Thanks for the reply.

When I create a php script with the following:

<?php
phpinfo();

and right click on it, select run as and select php script, it shows
Configuration File (php.ini) Path => /usr/local/php5/lib
which is the same as the apache uses. I can't find anyt temporary php.ini.

When I run php -m from the commandline, xdebug is shown in the section of
the Zend Modules.

Any suggestion or anything I can try or do?

Thank in advance

try copying the php.ini file to where the php executable is and see if it works.
Also run your phpinfo under debug and check that xdebug is listed in the output.

Thanks Dave, symlinking the php.ini to the same directory did the trick.
