netbeans xdebug等待连接，尽管通过所有论坛的答案

Question

I get the message "waiting for connection (netbeans-xdebug)" when using netbeans debugger.

I am using: Windows 10 XAMPP for Windows 5.6.20 XAMPP control panel v3.2.2 NetBeans IDE 8.0.2

I have been round and round the forum answers for days trying everything but have drawn a blank.

The code in php.ini is :

> [XDebug]
; Only Zend OR (!) XDebug
zend_extension = c:\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug-2.5.4-5.6-vc11.dll
xdebug.remote_autostart=on
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_host=127.0.0.1
xdebug.remote_port=9001
xdebug.remote_handler="dbgp"
xdebug.profiler_enable=1
xdebug.profiler_output_dir="c:\xampp\tmp"
xdebug.remote_mode=req
xdebug.idekey="netbeans-xdebug"

I have tried every combination of parameters for the above imaginable.

The port I have used in netbeans is: project properties > Run Configuration > Advanced: 9001 Netbeans > Tools > Options > PHP > Debugging : 9001

Could it be significant that the debugger is using the Chrome browser, but my phpmyAdmin and the home screen for XAMPP are on IE?

Answer 1

I'm not sure about Windows, but in later versions of PHP on linux (starting from at least 5.4) the xdebug configuration is in a separate file. Mine is in:

/etc/php/7.0/apache2/conf.d/20-xdebug.ini

If you don't have a dedicated xdebug ini file, make sure you are editing the right php.ini. In my system there are 3:

/etc/php/7.0/apache2/php.ini
/etc/php/7.0/cli/php.ini
/etc/php/7.0/phpdbg/php.ini

Here is my xdebug configuration:

xdebug.remote_enable=on
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_host=localhost
xdebug.remote_mode=req
xdebug.remote_port=9000
xdebug.show_local_vars=on

A few considerations:

1. I see your port is different from mine (9000 vs 9001). Go to Tools->Options->PHP, at the "Debugging" tab make sure the "Debugger port" corresponds to the one specified in xdebug.remote_port.

2. Try to use localhost instead of 127.0.0.1

3. Make sure the output of phpinfo() contains information about xdebug. If you don't have an "xdebug" section you probably need to check the zend_extension path.

4. I remember reading on the NetBeans mailing list that a few people had problems caused by the Windows firewall, maybe you can try to disable it.
