XDebug - limited to localhost? [message #66718] Mon, 25 February 2008 06:22 Go to next message

Originally posted by: anderson.2wav.com

I am trying to debug a remote server using XDebug, attempting to follow
the many threads and blog postings on the subject. I can't seem to find
a clear and current answer about which tools I should be using, and
what functionality I should expect. Any help would be _greatly_
appreciated.

Server:
OS-X 10.4 Server, apache 2.2.8, PHP 5.2.5, XDebug 2.something (all
built from source).

Client:
Eclipse 3.3.~ (3 machines) OS-X 10.4, 10.5, and XP.
PDT 1.02,
the Zend debugger updates, (which I'm unclear if that's any different
than the standard PDT)
Also, I installed the XDebug Support plugins (most recent) from
bugs.eclipse.org # 169408

I believe that XDebug is running fine on the server.

In Eclipse running on the server machine, I can can connect and debug
just fine using the "PHP Web Page" plugin UI. I note from tcpdump and
netstat that eclipse connects to the server on localhost:9000, despite
a full hostname provided in the debug configuration.

In Eclipse running any elsewhere (10.5 and XP), the plugin does not
connect. I can see no evidence of the client attempting to connect to
the server in tcpdump or netstat.

In any of the clients, if I try to use the "PHP Web Script with XDebug"
plugin UI, I get an error in
org.eclipse.php.internal.core.util.FileUtils.fileExists(), as soon as I
try to create a new configuration.

I'm guessing that the XDebug Support plugin from bugzilla is perhaps
now deprecated and does not work in Eclipse 3.3. Is that correct?

Should I be able to debug a remote XDebug server (ie. one not at
127.0.0.1) with the standard PDT debug feature?


many TIA...

Andy

For xdebug support you only need PDT 1.0.2 for the IDE part, the code from #169408 is not required
any more.
Your server setup sounds ok. You should be able to remotely debug, by placing the correct xdebug
config values in php.ini

For more info on xdebug setup on your server, visit http://www.xdebug.org

THANKYOU. A little encouragement was all I needed, and the good advice
to RTFM instead of blindly following blog posts.

It was not clear to me (from the blog posts) that the XDebug server
initiates the connection to the client, not the other way around, as
with jdpa. Now it works beautifully.
