Hi,

i have some issue to correctly setup the PHP debugger in Eclipse Kepler SR1 build 20130919-0819.

[ I don't know if this is the right place, so please moderators, if it's not the correct place, just move this post to the appropriate forum. thx. ]

my web server is a virtual machine with a particular fixed IP address, where xdebug is installed. Server works perfectly now since 1,5 year.

i had to reinstall Eclipse platform on my computer and unfortunately i lost the settings for remote debugging.

i watched several youtube videos how to setup everything on server (virtual machine) and on my local computer (the debugging machine), however i have some issue while debugging.

i use Chrome and firefox with xdebug plugins to catch the breakpoints.

when FF or chrome trigger the breakpoint, eclipse get the focus and display the message attached as attachment.
index.php/fa/16781/0/

i guess my issue is when i setup the Windows > Preferences > PHP > Debug > PHP Servers.

Has someone already been successful to that ?

I need your help.

thx

>No appropriate file located or no file selected. Debug Terminated
It simply means there is no corresponding file(local copy) in your workspace.
Xdebug is working fine and PDT is receiving debug-messages properly, but PDT could not find out the debugging target php file in your workspace.

thx for your answer.

Here it's what i've done.

1. as my webserver works under fedora in a virtual machine and my debugging machine is under Windows 7, i install a sshfs manager too to map the linux web root of the project as a windows drive "T".
2. Next step i create a new project based on source file that i can get from mapped drive T.
3. i set up debugger information as server mapping.
4. i setup breakpoint
5. i run the web page in chrome with xdebug plugins to trigger the breakpoint once on the function to debug.

unfortunately no breakpoint is triggered from remote debugging.
I did the same with another IDE (PHPStrom trial version) and it worked in 5 minutes. I would rather use Eclipse as it is free and it is my favorite IDE for development. SO where is the problem with remote debugging ?

thx.

try reading
http://www.eclipse.org/pdt/documents/XDebugGuideForPDT2.0.pdf
specifically look at the area regarding path mapping

Hi Dave,

first of all, very thx for the link to documentation, i discovered new things and understood why some settings were useless in my case.
i review everything with documentation and checked several time the path mapping, but i still have the same issue.

When in Chrome browser i run the xdebug plusing and load the page to debug, PDT displays the mapping window asking me to map server index.php to local index.php (see screenshot)

index.php/fa/16829/0/

even if i do it with the correct index.php on local / project side, i still do not debug the function i want to Sad

so what am i doing wrong ?
