Answer 1

I had similar problem.

I did:

1. Installed xdebug by following the steps here.
2. Found out which version of PHP does my PHPStorm use.
3. Created a new entry in the corresponding php.ini file of the /path/to/xdebug/modules/xdebug.so.

and I was able to solve my problem. xdebug is working now.
