If your php.ini really looks like what you posted, you have to un-comment the zend_extension line (i.e. remove the ';' at its begninning), so Xdebug is actually loaded.

Then, make sure Xdebug is loaded, calling phpinfo() from a PHP file (just to be sure).

After that : I suppose there should be some options to configure the debugger in netbeans ? If so, is netbeans listening on port 9000 ? (The one you configured in php.ini)
