Netbeans xdebug nightmare

Question

I know what you're thinking, ANOTHER netbeans xdebug post?

Well, I've tried everything I've seen in other posts, and nothing seems to work. Here's my setup:

• OS: Ubuntu 9.10
• PHP: 5.2.1
• Netbeans: 6.8

The following is in my /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini

zend_extension=/usr/lib/php5/20060613/xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_host=localhost
xdebug.remote_port=9000
xdebug.idekey="netbeans-xdebug"

I've tried switching ports (I've tried 9001, 9002, and 9034 so far), using zend_extension_ts, adding additional xdebug parameters in the config file, but nothing seems to work: Netbeans still says it's waiting for connection (netbeans-xdebug)

If I look at my phpinfo, I do see a whole section on xdebug, and the parameters are correct.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

I have no idea what happened, but I switched my debug port to 9000 and upgraded to Netbeans 6.9, and it works now.

Answer 2

xdebug seems not working in "run as script" mode try it on your local website

Answer 3

adding those lines solved my problems (usually)

xdebug.remote_enable = on

xdebug.profiler_enable = on

xdebug.profiler_enable_trigger = on

xdebug.profiler_output_name = cachegrind.out.%t.%p

xdebug.profiler_output_dir = "c:/wamp/tmp"
