New install not working properly [message #59556]

I have installed the PDT on an openSUSE 10.3 linux system and am having
several problems with the operation.

I've attempted to run through some of the tutorial exercises and have
found several problems with the code assist and debug features:

1. Function parameter hints do not appear when control+shift+space is
pressed

2. The code assist scope did not work by limiting suggestions to those
within the function scope of the cursor.

3. I have attempted to run the debug script given in the help file. With
the stop at first line option selected in the configuration, the debugger
stops properly at the first php link and I can step through the script
using the debugger controls. However, if I click the run arrow, the
debugger will not stop at a set breakpoint, even though the breakpoint is
listed on the breakpoints tab and shown as selected (checked).

I have no idea on what to do next to track down these problems. Any help
would be greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure if this is pertinent to the problems described, but I also
notice that the outline tab shows functions in the file, but the PHP
Project Outline does not show the function (or constants or classes).

It appears that the code assist feature is working. I'm not sure why it
didn't appear on the first attempt, but it is working now.

Summary of what is not currently working (I am using the file1.php code
from the code assist part of the basic tutorial):

1. The Project Outline tab does not show any Functions, Classes, or
Constants (the category titles are shown, but the media function is not
listed). I have removed the Location 1 and Location 2 extra $ to clear
errors detected by the parser. I have also entered an echo statement at
the end of the script to verify that the PHP Browser would display the
output correctly (it did). The code folding feature detects the function
and gives me the option of folding it. If I fold it and hover over it, I
do get the pop up showing the function code.

2. When I attempt to run the file with the script debugger, it breaks at
the first line as optioned and I can step through the statements using the
debugger controls. I have set a breakpoint near the end of the script and
when I click the run arrow the script runs to completion without
responding to the breakpoint. The breakpoint is listed in the Breakpoints
tab and is checked. The output of the Browser tab shows the echoed text
from the statement at the end of the script that I added. The debug
output reads:

X-Powered-By: PHP/5.2.2
Set-Cookie: ZendDebuggerCookie=127.0.0.1%3A10000%3A0||00C|77742D65|1001;
path=/

I hope that the above information is enough for someone skilled in the PDT
to help me track down and correct the problem.

Thanks in advance.

I've reinstalled eclipse on this machine and now have most of the features
working properly. I can debug using the script debugger and it will stop
at the first line and also at set breakpoints. When I try to use the Web
Page debugger it does not stop at either the first line or at the set
breakpoint; it just runs to completion and the browser shows the correct
output. When I try to run on the server, when the New Configuration is
started I get an error alert saying java.lang.illegalArgumentException and
that alert will not respond to mouse clicks until I close the script debug
configuration window.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
