I've been using the SRV for a while and I was trying to use Apache today. I installed Apache, php and the debug module.

But when I set the Run Mode to 3rd Party WEB Server and the Root URL to http://localhost/ I get the following message when I hit run:

Can't run "C:\test\index.php" file.
Make sure that "Remote root directory" and "Root URL" are correct in the project settings

The remote root directory is set to the root of my project. It cannot be changed. I'm assuming this is because I'm running PhpED Standard and cannot do remote debugging.

How can I fix this?

I used the PHP Debugger Wizard Script. Just drop it into your root directory and run it. It will give you all of your variables like Root URL and Root Directory and a bunch of other useful installation info. It's a good place to start if you're having trouble configuring the debugger.

BTW- The way I understood it is if the site is hosted on the same computer as your PhpED, then you can debug it. Only 'remote' server debugging is reserved for the Pro+ versions. In other words, the "3rd Party WEB Server" mode should work just fine in Standard, as long as the target server is on the same machine as your PhpED. Hope that helps.

Ah thank you.

Actually, it looks like I just have to restart PhpED after setting those options. Probably some bug. I came into work today, started PhpED and everything was working fine. Then I set up my buddy's computer for the same settings and it gave the same error. So we restarted PhpED and everything worked fine. And yeah, local debugging works great in the standard version.

I'd highly appreciate if you let me know how to replicate this problem.
