I've read quite a lot answers but couldn't figure out why xdebug doesn't work.
php.ini:
[xdebug]
zend_extension="/usr/lib/php5/20090626/xdebug.so"
php -v:
PHP 5.5.6-1+debphp.org~precise+2 (cli) (built: Nov 21 2013 14:31:41)
Copyright (c) 1997-2013 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.5.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2013 Zend Technologies
with Zend OPcache v7.0.3-dev, Copyright (c) 1999-2013, by Zend Technologies
/usr/lib/php5/20090626/xdebug.so does exist. No zend optimizer in php.ini.
Also if I try to install xdebug:
pecl/xdebug is already installed and is the same as the released version 2.2.3
install failed
Thanks in advance.
Ok so I've stumbled upon this myself.
First of all, the 20090626 lib is compiled for php 5.3. So you can't really use that. Here are the steps I've performed in order to be able to use xdebug with php 5.5:
I'm on ubuntu 12.04, so next steps might not work with your system:
zend_extension=xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable = 1 xdebug.renite_enable = 1 xdebug.max_nesting_level = 1000 xdebug.profiler_enable_trigger = 1 xdebug.profiler_output_dir = '/var/log'See more about xdebug settings: http://xdebug.org/docs/all_settings
php -v:
