Greetings,

I am trying very hard to get DBG running on my computer, with no success. I have read other users posts who have had the same or similar problems and I didn't find a clear path to resolution, hence my post here.

I have PHP 5.2.0 running under IIS on Windows XP SP2. My Php.ini file is located at: "C:\Inetpub\PHP\php.ini" which is verified by the phpinfo() function. I have "php_dbg.dll-5.1.2" renamed as "php_dbg.dll", and placed in the extension directory which is defined in Php.ini as: extension_dir = "C:\Inetpub\PHP\ext".

DBG config settings in my Php.ini file look like this:

---begin php.ini snippet-----

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
; Debugger ;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

extension=php_dbg.dll

[debugger]
debugger.enabled = on
debugger.profiler_enabled = on
debugger.JIT_enabled = true
debugger.JIT_host = clienthost
debugger.JIT_port = 7869

-------end php.ini snippet-------

I have tried extension= (as is currently configured), zend_extension=, and also zend_extension_ts=
but none of these seem to be registering with PHP for some unknown reason. After I make changes to the Php.ini file, I always log off my machine and log back on again to restart the services on the machine. (I am logging in as administrator)

No matter what I try, for some reason, I cannot get the message from php info that DBG is enabled or configured..........

Any help would be extremely appreciated.

Thank you,

php_dbg.dll-5.1.2 won't work under php 5.2.0. You need php_dbg.dll-5.2.0 and this is not available with free debugger package.
You may want to wait for updates or switch to php 5.1.2.

That was simple and effective. I switched to php 5.1.2 and the debugger is displaying its config info with phpinfo().

It is amazing how many incomplete references and 'help' docs exist out there that leave out vital clues to finding resolutions. It may be straight-forward in this case that the version of php must match the version of your debugger, but that isn't always true in other scenarios.

Thanks again!

may i know when php_dbg.dll-5.2.0 will be available for the free debugger package ?

Eariler I promissed that this will be done in January.
You see, this month is getting over and I still havn't finished dbg 2.15.2, yet. Sorry for this. I hope I'll get more time for this work in February.
