Project details:

PHP script, purely CLI, no URL associated with the script. In fact, no Apache installed on server.

project root:
/home/user/code/cliapps

scripts are placed in subfolders
script1/script1.php
script2/script2.php

ftp account points to
/home/user/code/cliapps

all that on remote server (can't run scripts locally due to access restrictions, data files availability, db connection restricted to specific IP etc.)

Project's debugger settings:

Run target: "Remote server"
Default file or URL: empty
Root URL: empty

Mapping for debugger:
Remote root directory: /home/user/code/cliapps
Terminal account: term_acct1 (set and tested)
Php executable: php

on the remote server I run script from /home/user/code/cliapps
php script1/script1.php

all the time I initiate debugging session it says:
"New debug session with //cloud01.myserver.com/script1/script1.php has started. But IDE could not find the project for the web debugging. Breakpoints and other features may fail to work."

and breakpoints fail to work indeed

Log:
Debugger Starting debug session (20140630), script: script1/script1.php, server: cloud01.myserver.com, sapi: cli
Debugger Failed to find a way to load "/home/user/code/cliapps/script1/script1.php" remote file. Opening it using debugger protocol


PLEASE, help. I don't see what I'm missing

Ok, figured out a workaround way to do that

starting script with absolute path does the trick
e.g.
php /home/user/code/cliapps/script1/script1.php

what product version & build # do you use?

v14.0 build 14029, 64bit

I had this problem with a previous build, after upgrade it's gone
