php-debug | Atom Text Editor package for PHP | Code Inspection library

Goal
Debug with PHP Debug, Xdebug and VSCodium.

Problem

VSCode doesn't start debugging. When I click Start Debugging the blue line under the debugging control buttons appears and moves for a few seconds and then the control buttons disappear. Same when I press the green "Run" button

Also on the left side, where "variables", "watch" and "stack" are shown nothing appears.

Description
I have no experience with the VSCodium debugging options. I used a couple of tutorials (1, 2, 3, videos and tried certainly the proposal from the VSCode PHP Debug extension site (which I use). I'm using Codium (VSCode without MS) on a Linux Mint 20 machine. PHP 7.4 and Xdebug are installed via Linux Synaptic Package Manager. Of course the Xdebug helper in Firefox is enabled, breakpoints are set and I tried it in different projects. I tried a few things in the php.ini. That's how it looks at the moment:

Expected behavior:

I have multiple PHP projects on different servers, usually I debug them with PhpStorm which allows me to configure path mappings for remote debugging per server. Thus I can have the same remote paths e.g. /var/www/html for different servers.

Problem description:

So far I have been unable to configure multiple servers with the same remote paths using VSCode.

I use the most used php-debug plugin for VSCode and have not found any information regarding this issue on the projects GitHub page or anywhere else.

Currently I do not think configuring multiple remote servers using VSCode is possible at this time but in case someone knows a way I would appreciate it.

Current configuration:

With the following configuration I can only debug one project at once and have to change the paths manually when I want to debug another project on another server with the same remote paths.

I've tried many things trying to let work Xdebug in a Docker container. I came in contact with these resources:

• Setting up Xdebug with Docker Compose and WordPress image
• Installing XDebug in Docker
• Starting The Debugger
• Zero-configuration Web Application Debugging with Xdebug and PhpStorm
• Xdebug & Zend Debugger bookmarklets generator for PhpStorm
• Configure Xdebug
• Troubleshooting common PHP debugging issues
• .. and other

I think the problem is either something with the ports that I don't understand, or it is something with the debugger session not being started or recognized. For the debugger session I have also tried to install a browser extension that sets a cookie.

I ended up at least to have separate containers, one as dev container with enabled Xdebug.

docker-compose.yml

I have move from my Thinkpad laptop to HP Elitebook. I must set my development environment in my new laptop. After setup my Visual Studio Code and XAMPP in Windows 10 Pro 64 bit edition, I can't debug my PHP code.

I have properly installed Xdebug extension for Visual Studio Code, and make sure the php.ini correct. This is my setting for php.ini (I use portable XAMPP which is placed on E: drive):

My php-debugging with xdebug in visual studio only works sometimes. Some of the times i just get a normal browser page load (error log below).

Edit: At first i thought it was due to the location of the file, but I noticed it could happen in any location; either xdebug finds an error in the code without stopping at my own breakpoints; or it can find all types of breakpoints OR find nothing at all... Now I'm thinking it has to do with refreshing, modifying and resaving the file as well as what types of errors are in the file. I'll get back to this if I can find out what causes it.

In my current setup I have my localhost webroot at /home/user/Git/www/projects which is where 127.0.0.1 points to. However, I've also set up multiple virtual hosts that reside in their respective subfolders: /home/user/Git/www/projects/project_name.

Some things I already looked at

In this thread: Visual Studio Code - Xdebug won't work - They suggest setting xdebug.remote_connect_back = 1, which doesn't solve the problem. They also suggest setting localSourceRoot in launch.json to point to server root. However, simply adding "localSourceRoot": "http://127.0.0.1" or something like "localSourceRoot": "http://127.0.0.1/project_name" did not work.

So, I'm trying to get the vscode-firefox-debug to play.

It, vscode-firefox-debug, claims to be compatible with vscode remote.

How do I configure this thing, to work with my remote?

All my development is done on a remote headless server, running Slackware64 14.2

Let's call that box www.example.com.

My local box is a Windows 8.1 x64 Pro with:

Firefox 69.0.1 (64-bit)

I have visual studio code 1.41.1 installed with PHP Debug Version - 1.13.0.

I am running PHP Lamp stack on Ubuntu, my PHP info is showing “xdebug xdebug support enabled - Version 2.9.0”

My PHP.ini is configured as follows:

I'm trying to get xdebug to talk to PHPStorm from inside a docker container.

My .ini file currently looks like this, but believe me: I've experimented with many combinations of these settings this morning:

Using PrestaShop 1.7 to develop my application and using Xdebug to debug my code. The Xdebug doc link is https://xdebug.org/docs/.

But it will get exception every time which says that

"Integrity check failed."
