Hi,

I'm from the print_r dynasty and am wandering if someone could help me get my debugging going...


I am having difficulties getting any debugging working with a front controller.

The URL on my local server is mywebserver/some_action/some_id/ or i could access it via mywebserver/index.php?page_action=some_action&id=id.

The page i want to debug (some_action.php) is in a completely different directory.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I hit debug on the debug tool bar, the debugger runs but it doesn't stop at any break points.
The only way that I can get it to stop is via debugbreak(). Am i missing something?

what IDE do you run debugger with? and what's the debugger version?

Hi thanks for responding,

I am using the trial version of phped5 and the php_dbg.dll-5.2.x ext that came with the demo distribution.
Local server = Apache 2.0 - php 5.2.1

The module appears to be installed properly because it is invoking phped and as I said if i put in debugbreak() it is stopping as expected.

Could it be something to do with mapping? (mapping settings: remote = c:/www/site - local = c:\www\site - url = mywebserver)

Thanks,

Sam

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
that's the problem.
You have to use appropriate slashes, \ - in this case
