I'm having a bunch of problems with my phpmyadmin. I have been using this tool for years and never had any problems until last week, but since, I can't manage to make it work properly. I didn't do any changes to the system, apache, php, mysql and phpmyadmin where not touched/changed before the problems started.
Actual Symptoms:
- Words on the links on the database list don't work. If I click the name of the database, the "loading..." text in yellow background appears on the middle of the screen, but nothing happens, and it never dissappear.
- If I click the "+" sign on the database list, The database expands and I can see the tables, the new table, and the indexes options. But only if I haven't clicked the name of the database first.
- From the top menu, the "databases" link some times work and some times doesn't.
- If I copy the link from a database on the list at the left of the screen and pate it on the address bar of the browser, it tries to take to a different address, for instance, this link "http://phpmyadmin.local/db_structure.php?server=1&db=cosa&token=20b203d3e8b93424798c61ddb6af844e" will take me to "http://www.phpmyadmin.local/db_structure.php?server=1&db=cosa&token=20b203d3e8b93424798c61ddb6af844e"
- If I click on the "+" sign of the databases list I get the tables from that database, if I click the "Columns" link, the list of columns appear, as expected, on the main area of the windows, but if I select one or more tables and then click the "drop" link/action, phpmyadmin dissapears. The URL is "http://phpmyadmin.local/tbl_structure.php" and the message is "The connection was reset". (I'm using firefox right now). Cookies are not disabled.
I can access and operate the database with mysql-workbench or from the command line without problems.
Other symptoms not present at the moment. fixed?
- It was also giving me some troubles to connect and stay logged. I always use http auth_type, but I also tried cookie and config. But after the last clean up and reinstall, everything related to login in and the token seems to have been fixed.
- error: Token mismatch

Update
I found that a change on xdebug settings was the culprit, I'm posting an answer to my question with that finding, also will try to post on the xdebug tracking system with a link to this question for reference. Hope it helps to debug the situation.
