Hi!

I successfully installed dbg 2.11.26 and dbg-cli 2.11.0 on a linux machine, on which PHP-5.0.0RC3 with cli is installed. Running phpinfo() successfully returns dbg informations.

I would like to debug php code through the ~command-line~ php interpreter. Is it possible? And if yes, how?

Thanks for any answer.

see "set cgiexec" command through which you can set either php or php-cli as an executable to run and debug php script under dbg-cli.

Thanks for the answer.

Nevertheless, when I start the debugger, I still get a timeout.

The php.ini is set up as this:

extension=dbg.so

[Debugger]
debugger.enabled=on
debugger.profiler_enabled=on
debugger.JIT_enabled=true
debugger.JIT_host=clienthost
debugger.JIT_port=7869
debugger.JIT_level=4
debugger.fail_silently=false
debugger.ignore_nops=false
debugger.timeout_seconds=300
debugger.enable_session_cookie=true
debugger.session_nocache=on

I've written a simple php script that simply echoes some stuff, let's name it test_debugme.php. I launch the debugger and run the program and get the following result.

% dbg test.php
DBG php debugger, version 2.11.0, Copyright 2000, 2003, Dmitri Dmitrienko, www.nusphere.com/dbg
Reading symbols from /home/.../test_debugme.php...done.
dbg> run

Program exited.
Session start timeout has expired.
Program is not being run.
dbg>

I tried to set cgiexec to php

dbg> set cgiexec php

and checked the result with show

dbg> show cgiexec
/usr/local/bin/php.

I also tried to set the port to 7869 (I think I may be confusing this with http debugging...) with no result.

dbg> set port 7869

Furthermore, I get this result with `ps ax` after I triied to run:

30290 pts/6 S+ 0:00 dbg test_debugme.php
30291 pts/6 Z+ 0:00 [php] <defunct>

And each time a rerun, a new [php] <defunct> line is added. I finally get a lot of zombies that get killed when I exit the debugger. I don't know if this may help.

Tourneur.
