Some what confussed
Trying to install the binary DBG debugger

I extrracted this folder "dbg-2.11.23-Linux-i386"

I made these changes and addtions to my php.ini

;cwynn changed 1/28/04
;extension_dir = "./"
extension_dir = "/usr/local/lib/dbg-2.11.23-Linux-i386"


;cwynn added next 5 lines;prior these lines were not in this file
[debugger]
debugger.enabled = true
debugger.profiler_enabled = true
debugger.JIT_host = clienthost
debugger.JIT_port = 7869

My phpinfo() out put doesn't indicate this extension is seen?

and this line in the output:

extension_dir /usr/local/lib/dbg-2.11.23-Linux-i386 /usr/local/lib/dbg-2.11.23-Linux-i386

Is this all that is needs to be done?

thank you

hi Craig,
You did all but loaded the extension itself.
Add extension=dbg.so above the [debugger] section

added:
;cwynn changed 1/28/04
;extension_dir = "./"
extension_dir = "/usr/local/lib/dbg-2.11.23-Linux-i386"
extension="dbg.so"

;cwynn added next 5 lines;prior these lines were not in this file
[debugger]
debugger.enabled = true
debugger.profiler_enabled = true
debugger.JIT_host = clienthost
debugger.JIT_port = 7869

Do you know what I should be looking for in the output of "phpinfo.php"
I do not see any thing that indicates this debugger is operational.

At this time I do not have phped installed to test the debugger. Can I verify without phped?

thank you

two things to check.
1. make sure you edit php.ini located in the directory listed in phpinfo (see the topmost header)
2. check apache logs to see if php was unable to load anything.

#1 answer is yes, the php.ini that I edit is the one listed in the heading of my phpinfo.php

this look normal to you?

I thank you
craig

and phpinfo still does not show anything about DBG ?
It's impossible
if it anyway happened, try to comment out other extensions/zend extensions one-by-one to see if dbg finally appears.
