Xdebug And Netbeans Problem

Question

Im trying to configure xdebug to work with Netbeans 6.9 and php 5.3
As far as i concern i have setup xdebug properly.
I can see xdebug extension from phpinfo page.

Answer 1

When I tried to debug the Yeoman WebApps powered by PHP backend in Netbeans, the status keep showing 'Waiting for connection'. There's probably because the index.html has nothing to do with php at all. It's only when I've triggered the ajax which needed PHP processing, the connection with xdebug immediately connected and debug as usual. Hope this give another perspective to someone as I have stumbled to 'think' there is a problem and trying to fix the ini.

Answer 2

I couldn't figure out why some of my projects would connect to the debugger and others wouldn't. Then I realized that the ones that wouldn't connect started with index.html. Once I renamed these files to index.php, the debugger connected with no problem.
