Enabling xdebug with phpstorm on mac OSX El Capita

Question

Before upgrading my macbook to El Capitan I had a sweet setup of Phpstorm 9, php 5.6 (via homebrew), xdebug (via homebrew).

For the last month or so, however, I have been breakin my head, trying to figure out how to make that setup work again.

I would appreciate any ideas you guys might have.

Thanks, Eyal

P.S. Here are my settings:

xdebug version and ide key

xdebug remote settings

xdebug session cookie

xdebug port in phpstorm

PHP configuration in phpstorm

Debug validation in phpstorm

xdebug log

Answer 1

Based on the provided info: please change xdebug port (in both php.ini and PhpStorm) to some another port (e.g. 9001) and verify that it is not occupied before doing that using the same sudo lsof -nP -iTCP -sTCP:LISTEN command.

Right now there seems to be a conflict with php-fpm (both programs using the same ports).

P.S. You may need to restart your web server to see those changes picked up from php.ini.
