Getting xDebug working [message #916386]

I'm trying to get xDebug working. I've run out of ideas and have followed a number of tutorials. I'm running Kubuntu 11.10 and Eclipse 3.7.0

PDT and xDebug are both installed. I have the following setting under php->debug

PHP Debugger: XDebug
Server: Default PHP Web Server
PHP Executable: System PHP

The following is the config file created when I installed xDebug (/etc/php5/conf.d/xdebug.ini) which contains the following:

zend_extension=/usr/lib/php5/20090626/xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable=on
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_port=9000

I reloaded apache after adding the last three lines, and I confirmed the zend_extension path. I also restarted Ecplipse.

Any advice would be great. Thanks.

Check that Eclipse's web browser settings are correct.

Window/Preferences/General/Web Browser/external Web Browsers/Edit settings

If eclipse can't launch the browser (even an external browser), it'll
wait forever to come up

my 2 cents,
Knut

Could you provide more details?

- Is the browser launching at all?
- If yes, which one?
- Is the browser launching but the debugger simply doesn't connect?
