Hey, sometimes I post new content, so if you want to stay up to date sign up for my newsletter. The URL to validation script contains something different from localhost, but the xdebug.remote_host value is not set and so is using the default value of localhost, or is set to localhost or 127.0.0.1. The PHPStorm docs of course! Wayyyyy at the bottom of this page it’s plainly stated: Remote host is configured as ‘localhost’ despite server host is probably not local So how’d I figure out this was the reason for Xdebug throwing up? Apparently this was enough for PHPStorm to freak out and just not run Xdebug. The 'Validate remote environment' button says 'Remote host: localhost'. It didn't work so I then tried to setup a new PHP Remote Debug server in run > edit configurations. Why? Welp, localhost is pointing to an invalid folder location, according to MAMP. I set a breakpoint and tried to establish the connection by setting PHPStorm to listen and using the bookmarklet to set the browser to start debugging.
Unfortunately, for some reason, this Monday morning, setting this value to localhost no longer worked. It normally is, if you copy-pasta some of the tutorials on the internet. So, it appears that for PHPStorm to pick up Xdebug correctly, the xdebug.remote_host variable needs to be set correctly. I’ve talked about this combination causing me issues in the past, but this is a whole new situation that killed a couple hours for me.
Just came across another fun quirk with running Xdebug, MAMP and PHPStorm together. xdebug.remoteconnectback on This would cause everything to seem okay but somehow no debug connections were actually caught by PHP storm.
Does anyone have any idea why this happens Among other things, when I close phpstorm it asks me if I want to close a session on stdin. I’m mostly logging this here for my own benefit, but if the Google gods brought your here, sweet! When I use phpstorm and turn on the server to connect with xdebug, it happens to me that the debug starts by itself even though I havent requested it and I cant figure out why.
