We are looking to buy PHPed, as we are testing it now. We use our stand alone clients for development so developers can continue their projects when not in the office (all dummy databases and what not) are on each system). I am currently using the watered down version of IIS (cant afford to have full version on 25 systems, planning switch to Apache sometime soon) that comes with XP PRO and we wrote am ISAPI Filter dll that will map URL's to specific directorys (Virtual Directories) due to the standard limitations of IIS 5.1.

When I switch IDE and Workspace settings to use 3rd Party debugger I keep geting time outs or can not connect. If I switch back the the included web server it works. I have the following in my php.ini:

[debugger]
debugger.enabled=on
debugger.profiler_enabled=on
debugger.hosts_allow=127.0.0.1
debugger.hosts_deny=All
debugger.ports=7869, 10000/16

NOTE: 127.0.0.1 could be any IP as I have tried.

I am thinking of making my descision on buying this software rather quickly if this can be resolved.

Also running phpinfo in a script indicates that debugger is up and running, and the little dish icon is in my system tray. Any help for configuration is appreciated.

Thanks,
Mark Howard

Most probably, you forgot to install the debugger module itself. Make sure extension=php_dbg.dll line is in php.ini and all the debugger related settings are below it.
