I will enable the logging and try a sample project. If it is something specific to my project, can you give me some hints or examples of things that might cause XDebug to fail for specific projects?

Thanks,

I uninstalled VsPhp 2.8 for 2008 and reinstalled v2.8 for 2010 as an admin so it is the only version installed.

I added the line xdebug.remote_log="c:\logs\xdebug.log" and created c:logs directory.
I commented out everything in my index.php file except the line

    phpinfo();

No logs are getting created when I try to debug. I get the following error dialog:

php.exe - Entry Point Not Found

The procedure entry point mysqlnd_fetch_lengths could not be located in the dynamic link library php5ts.dll.

The odd thing about this is that I get it regardless of whether I try to load any mysql extensions and with no modules listed in the project.

I uninstalled version 2.8 for VS2010 and VS2008 and installed 2.7 for VS2010. After creating a new project and importing my files and setting the recommended project settings, I was able finally able to debug using the built-in method.

I still cannot debug on my remote server. I have made sure that the extension shows up in phpinfo, my firewall is letting port 7870 through, I changed the idekey in php.ini on my remote server to vsphp and I made sure that the other settings in the xdebug section of php.ini are correct. You can see the phpinfo by browsing here.

Could you get the xdebug log? You can enable it by adding to the php.ini:

xdebug.remote_log=[path to your log file]

I just downloaded this software yesterday. Wasted a day to get it work on my drupal 6.14. php 5.3.X

For those who want it to work in drupal, the first thing you have to do
is install apache. copy the following module to the httpd-template.conf inside the programmerfiles\VS.php folder

LoadModule asis_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_asis.so"
LoadModule auth_basic_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_auth_basic.so"
LoadModule auth_digest_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_auth_digest.so"
LoadModule authn_alias_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authn_alias.so"
LoadModule authn_anon_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authn_anon.so"
LoadModule authn_dbd_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authn_dbd.so"
LoadModule authn_dbm_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authn_dbm.so"
LoadModule authn_default_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authn_default.so"
LoadModule authn_file_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authn_file.so"
LoadModule authz_dbm_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authz_dbm.so"
LoadModule authz_default_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authz_default.so"
LoadModule authz_groupfile_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authz_groupfile.so"
LoadModule authz_host_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authz_host.so"
LoadModule authz_user_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_authz_user.so"
LoadModule autoindex_module "$$APACHEDIR$$/modules/mod_autoindex.so"

The reason is .htaccess of the drupal conatin a code using the ORDER command, which is a apache module of auth of some sort...I don't know exactly which one. And this module are not installed in the internal apache of vs.php

so you have to install the modules.

second is add the code to the httpd-template.conf file inside VSphp.
Why? because the option inside VS apache config template is not working...so the only is amend the template directly.

at this point you can start your debug with drupal. but the external xdebug with not break in any break point. if you start internal xdebug, you will get error in a few clicks and you will get errors once you login drupal. For DBG the break point is also not work.

xdebug..seems quite rubbish..I cannot get it works in netbean and notepad++ and komodo.

while as long as xdebug is useless, I cannot really test on vs.php
