Thank you so much - this solved the “Waiting for XDebug session” problem. Just make sure that 1) xdebug is installed 2) you found the correct php.ini (use phpinfo() to find out) 3) you edit it according to this document 4) you restart apache 5) you correctly configure your eclipse to use xdebug and not zend

Thanks again

Regarding the “stuck at 57%” problem when remote debuging:

I changed a few things at the same time and one of them fixed it. I think it was the adding of this line in my PHP.INI file:
xdebug.remote_autostart=off
This forum post gave me the hint: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1868568/xdebug-configuration-with-php-fastcgi-and-eclipse
I don’t think it was a port/firewall problem as reported elsewhere.

@SBG, @Steve, and @cirpo, This was exactly the problem I was having and the solution seems to have been those config lines from the first code sample. If you haven’t already gotten those lines in and configured to your install, I’d recommend doing so. If you have, then I’m not sure what else to recommend.

Hey,
I’ve recently gotten a brand new machine and had to do a full build from the ground up. I’m a WAMP user so I built that just fine, then rebuilt it, then buit Xampp instead, then built the zend server CE. Nothing was giving me what I wanted for a debug until I got to this page and rebuilt WAMP with your config directives from the first code sample. Finally this worked.

I don’t think I would have ever gotten there without your code. Cheers, thanks for the great share!

include($PathPrefix . ‘includes/Login.php’);
exit;
}

I found that the information of breakpoint that should be caught by xdebugger is caught by the error control windows.The caught information is as follows:
Proxy: someone tries to connect

That is really strange!

@SBG - I see the same thing. Walked through all of the steps several times, all seems to be good, but I never get into debug either.
