I have installed Xdebug, and I can confirm from phpinfo() that it is correctly

  • 0

I have installed Xdebug, and I can confirm from phpinfo() that it is correctly installed. I have taken all the steps given in all of the sites that come up with I google “netbeans xdebug install, etc”.

It still does not work in Netbeans.
Is there any advice that someone can offer?

Here is my php.ini debug section…

[xdebug]
zend_extension = /usr/lib/php5/20090626/xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable = 1
xdebug.remote_mode = "req"
xdebug.remote_handler = dbgp
xdebug.remote_host = 127.0.0.1
xdebug.remote_port = 9000
xdebug.idekey = "netbeans-xdebug"

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Since the information available to me is very sparse, I have to describe the settings in more detail.

    Netbeans and xdebug settings.

    Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Precise Pangolin

    What ought to be installed.

    enter image description here

    enter image description here

    Global settings:

    Tools — Options

    enter image description here

    enter image description here

    PHP settings:

    With phpinfo() you get.. see below image.

    enter image description here

    Only one php.ini is important ! Look at Loaded Configuration File
    If you wrote a xdebug entry into another “php.ini” file be sure to clear all these entries again. ( xdebug ONLY in one php.ini ). Look also at Additional .ini files parsed. We come to this later. 

    zend_extension="/usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/xdebug.so"
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_mode=req
xdebug.remote_host=localhost
xdebug.remote_port=9000

    enter image description here

    Additional .ini files parsed.
    Add or controlling, only the first line must be the same as in the “php.ini”.( Without ” ” )

    enter image description here

    Make sure that the file is really there!

    enter image description here

    Make sure that the session.save_path is really there!

    enter image description here

    Control the xdebug version that should be equal to or greater.( Matching PHP Version-5.3.10-1 ). If everything was done as described in this answer, and it does not work, then it is with great probability of an incorrect or defective “xdebug.so”.

    enter image description here

    Create a new Php Project:

    enter image description here

    Project Properties:
    Sources
    In our test program, it is important the Project Folder and Source Folder are exactly alike!

    enter image description here

    Run Configuration

    enter image description here

    enter image description here

    Start Debug: — press Debug button

    enter image description here

    The default Browser opens and remains at Connecting .. stand while Netbeans in debug mode is.
    (If Netbeans do not open a Browser or can not connect, go back to Advanced Web Configuration and select Do Not Open Web Browser. Close an reopen the browser and type the URL as seen below)

    enter image description here

    Go through your code. You will see only something in the browser when you’re done with the debugging. Don’t forget to press the Stop Button enter image description here . If you forget this xdebug is running on.

    Done:
