Hi,

I'm trying to use the dbg-cli on RH 9, and I believe the DBG extension for PHP 4.2.2 has been correctly installed (it appears ok with php -i) but I'm having trouble getting started.
Here is what I see:

DBG php debugger, version 2.11.32, Copyright 2001, 2005, Dmitri Dmitrienko, www.nusphere.com
dbg>set mode off
dbg>file /tmp/h.php
Reading symbols from /tmp/h.php...done.
dbg>run
Starting program: `/tmp/h.php'
Unexpected character in input: '
/usr/bin/php:359 </usr/bin/php::main()>

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

could you please show the sources of h.php?
Looks like you're including "/usr/bin/php" there...

<?php echo "Hello world."; ?>
Done.

did you try to run this file with php without dbg-cli?
just run
cd /tmp
/usr/bin/php ./hello.php
If it runs correctly, dbg-cli should work with it too.
If it does not run, you have to check your php installation, settings etc.

Our php installation has been tested on much more complex scripts, and yes, this
particular example runs fine using php from the command line.

ok. Please re-configure dbg-cli with debug logs enabled and submit the logs there.
TIA.

The next message will contain the debug log. Just to be sure, here
is how I got the debug log: I downloaded the source, issued the
command

configure --prefix=$cwd --with-dbg-trace

and then make and make-install. Then I ran dbg-cli, and copied
what I saw to the next message. I hope this was right!

Does the preceding information lead to any hints on
what to do?
