xdebug not loading. not found in phpinfo() after apache restart - xdebug

I've been scouring every resource I could find, but came up empty. I get the dreaded "Waiting for Connection" message in NetBeans 6.9 when I start a debug session. After much reading, most folks are able to get phpinfo() to display that it loaded the xdebug module. Not so with me.
I downloaded the source through SVN using this call
svn co svn://svn.xdebug.org/svn/xdebug/xdebug/trunk xdebug
I switched to the xdebug directory and then ran phpize on the source
sudo /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5/bin/phpize

A big fat nothing! The referenced directories don't even exist. So, I make the assumption that any .ini tweaking I do beyond this point is useless. If I do a whereis php, I find it in /usr/bin. That's the default php pre-loaded with the OS. I don't want that one. I need to use the php installed with MAMP. I cannot believe how insanely frustrating it is to get this thing working!
For the record, my xdebug section in my php.ini looks like this:
[xdebug]
; xdebug config for Linux and Mac OS X
zend_extension="/Applications/MAMP/bin/php5/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20060613/xdebug.so"
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_mode=req
xdebug.remote_host=localhost
xdebug.remote_port=9000
xdebug.idekey="netbeans-xdebug"
xdebug.profiler_enable=1
xdebug.profiler_output_name=xdebug.cachegrind-out.%s.%p
xdebug.remote_log="/Applications/MAMP/logs/xdebug_log.log"
It's a mish-mash of many different attempts to get xdebug to work. So, I don't know which pieces are valid or not.
I throw myself on the mercy of the experts because I obviously am not one of them. I have absolutely no idea how to proceed at this point.
Thanks in advance.

To use phpize in the MAMP directory instead of your system path, you should add MAMP's directory for PHP binaries to your $PATH. Below I'm using MAMP 1.9.1, which offers PHP 5.2 and PHP 5.3. We'll assume you're compiling for PHP 5.3.
Open or create ~/.bash_profile and put the following contents:
#Add MAMP binaries to path
export PATH="/Applications/MAMP/Library/bin:/Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin:$PATH"
You may also need to chmod the binaries inside /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin to be executable:
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/pear
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/peardev
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/pecl
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/phar
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/phar.phar
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/php
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/php-config
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/phpcov
chmod 755 /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/phpize
Restart your Terminal session for the new $PATH to be loaded. Run the command which phpize and it should display /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin/phpize. If not, the path to phpize in your MAMP directory is not being loaded in your $PATH. Use echo $PATH in Terminal to make sure /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/bin is in the $PATH.
To get xDebug to compile, you need the header files from when PHP was compiled. These are available on the MAMP website in a DMG, and called "MAMP Components": http://www.mamp.info/en/downloads/index.html
Unpack MAMP Components and copy MAMP_src to your Desktop. Unpack MAMP_src/php-5.3.2.tar.gz and move it into the include path present in php-config --includes which should include /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/include/php.
cd ~/Desktop/MAMP_src
tar -xvzf php-5.3.2.tar.gz
mkdir -p /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/include
mv php-5.3.2/ /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/include/php
You can now run phpize in the xDebug source dir.

I had a similar problem with XAMPP on Mac OSX 10.6.
I got no version Numbers when running phpize in the xdebug download directory.
PHP Api Version:
Zend Module Api No:
Zend Extension Api No
I had to install the 'Development Package' which adds /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/include and other files to your XAMPP install. Installing the Development Package also fixed pecl so I tried using pecl to install xdebug.
pecl install xdebug
but apache failed to start with error
Failed loading /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/lib/php/php-5.3.1/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/xdebug.so: dlopen(/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/lib/php/php-5.3.1/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/xdebug.so, 9): no suitable image found. Did find:
/Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/lib/php/php-5.3.1/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/xdebug.so: mach-o, but wrong architecture
I tried compiling from source and got the same 'wrong architecture' errors
Finally I just used the KomodoIDE binary from active state which worked.

I just started working with xdebug myself due to problems with PHP 5.3.1. I had used PECL per instructions a couple weeks ago but it looks like phpize is the new black. I looked over the new instructions (generated from my phpinfo()) # http://xdebug.org/find-binary.php
this is of note:
Run: phpize
As part of its output it should show:
Configuring for:
PHP Api Version: 20090626
...
Zend Extension Api No: 220090626
If it does not, you are using the wrong phpize. Please follow this FAQ entry and skip the next step.
2 things:
have you checked that phpize is up to date?
if that doesnt work try these instructions: http://xdebug.org/docs/install

How to set up Xdebug profiling on PHP 7.2 & PHP-FPM

I'm trying to do some PHP profiling using Xdebug on a local environment. I'm running Ubuntu 22.04
I'm using PHP-FPM to run PHP v7.2 through a virtualhost.
php -v outputs
Zend Engine v4.1.7, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies
with Zend OPcache v8.1.7, Copyright (c), by Zend Technologies
with Xdebug v3.1.4, Copyright (c) 2002-2022, by Derick Rethans
On /tmp/xdebug I've run
sudo chown $USER:$USER /tmp/xdebug
At the bottom of my /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini & /etc/php/8.1/apache2/php.ini files I've put:
[xdebug]
zend_extension=xdebug
xdebug.output_dir = /tmp/xdebug
xdebug.remote_port=9001
xdebug.mode=develop,trace,profile
I then run
sudo systemctl restart apache2
The enabled Xdebug features are showing up in phpinfo() in my main /localhost/ directory (using PHP 8.*), but not in the one using PHP 7.2
In my virtualhost .conf file I'm setting the PHP version like (I'm including this because I'm not sure if I need to do anything in this .conf file or not)
<FilesMatch \.php$>
# For Apache version 2.4.10 and above, use SetHandler to run PHP as a fastCGI process server
SetHandler "proxy:unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock|fcgi://localhost"
</FilesMatch>
The image below shows phpinfo() picking up my Xdebug settings on PHP 8.*; the directory using PHP 7.2 shows no Xdebug settings enabled.
My question(s) / Issues:
How do I get PHP 7.2 to recognize my Xdebug settings?
How do I get Xdebug to output profile files to /tmp/xdebug? (I plan to use Webgrind)
I'm using PHP-FPM to run PHP v7.2
PHP 7.2 is no longer supported, so please upgrade to at least PHP 7.4, but preferably PHP 8.0 or 8.1.
the directory using PHP 7.2 shows no Xdebug settings enabled.
Make sure that you edit the right php.ini file — the xdebug_info() and phpinfo() sections should show which files it used.
Did you restart your PHP 7.2 PHP-FPM as well? The systemctl restart line for Apache does not automatically do that.
sudo chown $USER:$USER /tmp/xdebug
This is unlikely to be correct, as it needs to be the Apache user (often www-data) that can write to that directory, and not your shell user (which is likely just your log-in username — you can check that with echo $USER).
In case it helps someone, I made two basic mistakes. Thank you #Derick
Mistake #1: My xdebug profiling directory should have been owned by www-data
sudo chown www-data /tmp/xdebug
Mistake #2: I forgot to restart PHP 7.2 PHP-FPM
sudo systemctl restart php7.2-fpm
So, compiled, the steps I took to get Xdebug working with PHP 7.2 PHP-FPM
(Assumes installed LAMP environment)
1 - Install Xdebug (I'm on Ubuntu)
sudo apt-get install php-xdebug
2 - Create the directory to store profiling files & give Apache ownership
sudo mkdir /tmp/xdebug
sudo chown www-data /tmp/xdebug
3 - Enable Xdebug via php.ini (you can use phpinfo() to determine your .ini file location)
sudo nano /etc/php/7.2/fpm/php.ini
Add the following at the bottom of the .ini file (see settings documentation for your needs)
[xdebug]
zend_extension=xdebug
xdebug.output_dir = /tmp/xdebug
xdebug.remote_port=9001
xdebug.mode=develop,trace,profile
4 - Restart PHP-FPM & Apache
sudo systemctl restart php7.2-fpm
sudo systemctl restart apache2

CakePHP 3.0 installation: intl extension missing from system

Using the CakePHP docs, I am trying to install 3.0-beta2 using composer but I got this error:
cakephp/cakephp 3.0.x-dev requires ext-intl * -> the requested PHP extension intl is missing from your system
However, I know for sure that intl is installed (it shows on phpinfo). I'm using PHP 5.4.33/Apache 2.4.10.1
I faced the same problem today. You need to enable the intl PHP extension in your PHP configuration (.ini).
Solution Xampp (Windows)
Open /xampp/php/php.ini
Change ;extension=php_intl.dll to extension=php_intl.dll (remove the semicolon)
Copy all the /xampp/php/ic*.dll files to /xampp/apache/bin
Restart apache in the Xampp control panel
Solution Linux (thanks to Annamalai Somasundaram)
Install the php5-intl extension sudo apt-get install php5-intl
1.1. Alternatively use sudo yum install php5-intl if you are on CentOS or Fedora.
Restart apache sudo service apache2 restart
Solution Mac/OSX (homebrew) (thanks to deizel)
Install the php5-intl extension brew install php56-intl
If you get No available formula for php56-intl follow these instructions.
Restart apache sudo apachectl restart
Eventually you can run composer install to check if it's working. It will give an error if it's not.
I faced the same issue in ubuntu 12.04
Installed: sudo apt-get install php5-intl
Restarted the Apache: sudo service apache2 restart
OS X Homebrew (May 2015):
The intl extension has been removed from the main php5x formulas, so you no longer compile with the --enable-intl flag.
If you can't find the new package:
$ brew install php56-intl
Error: No available formula for php56-intl
Follow these instructions: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-php/issues/1701
$ brew install php56-intl
==> Installing php56-intl from homebrew/homebrew-php
When using MAMP
1 Go to terminal
vim ~/.bash_profile
i
export PATH=/Applications/MAMP/bin/php/php5.6.2/bin:$PATH
Change php5.6.2 to the php version you use with MAMP
Hit ESC,
Type :wq,
hit Enter
source ~/.bash_profile

2 Install Mac Ports
https://www.macports.org/install.php
sudo port install php5-intl OR sudo port install php53-intl
cp /opt/local/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/intl.so /Applications/MAMP/bin/php5.3/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/
{take a good look at the folder names that u use the right ones}
3 Add extension
Now, add the extension to your php.ini file:
extension=intl.so
Usefull Link:
https://gist.github.com/irazasyed/5987693
The error message clearly states what the problem is. You need the intl extension installed.
Step 1: install PHP intl you comfortable version
$sudo apt-get install php-intl
step 2:
For XAMPP Server intl extension is already installed, you need to enable this extension to uncomment below the line in your php.ini file. Php.ini file is located at c:\xampp\php\php.ini or where you have installed XAMPP.
Before uncomment:
;extension=php_intl.dll ;extension=php_mbstring.dll
After uncommenting:
extension=php_intl.dll extension=php_mbstring.dll
Short answer: activate intl extension in php_cli.ini. Thanks to #ndm for his input.
If you are using latest version Ubuntu 16.04 or later just do
sudo apt-get install php-intl
Then restart your apache
sudo service apache2 restart
In my case I was not actually trying to run cakephp locally, I was just trying to get it to auto update locally using composer (because I am playing with writing plugins that you install with composer). Since I don't actually even run it locally I could simply ignore requirements by adding the --ignore-platform-reqs flag.
php composer.phar update --ignore-platform-reqs
In my case, my running php version is 7.1.x on mac OSX .
I installed intl command using brew install php71-intl.
Placing extension=intl.so inside php.ini was no effect at all. Finally i looked for extension installed directory and there i saw intl.so and placed that path (extension=/usr/local/Cellar/php71-intl/7.1.11_20/intl.so) to my php.ini file and it solved my problem.
In my case (xampp PHP 8.0)
Find ;extension=intl in /xampp/php/php.ini
Remove ; and Restart Apache
MAKE this
In XAMPP, intl extension is included but you have to uncomment extension=php_intl.dll in php.ini and restart the server through the XAMPP Control Panel.
In WAMP, the intl extension is “activated” by default but not working. To make it work you have to go to php folder (by default) C:\wamp\bin\php\php{version}, copy all the files that looks like icu*.dll and paste them into the apache bin directory C:\wamp\bin\apache\apache{version}\bin. Then restart all services and it should be OK.
if you use XAMPP do this
1. turn off XAMPP
2. Modifed the php.ini is located in c/:xampp/php/php.ini
3. intl extension is included but you have to uncomment extension=php_intl.dll in php.ini and restart the server through the XAMPP Control Panel.
For Ubuntu terminal:
Please follow the steps:
Step-1:
cd ~
Step -2: Run the following commands
sudo apt-get install php5-intl
Step -3: You then need to restart Apache
sudo service apache2 restart
For Windows(XAMPP) :
Find the Php.ini file:
/xampp/php/php.ini
Update the php.ini file with remove (;) semi colon like mentioned below:
;extension=php_intl.dll to extension=php_intl.dll
and save the php.ini file.
After that you need to
Restart the xampp using xampp control.
Intl Means :Internationalization extension which enables programmers to perform UCA-conformant collation and number,currency,date,time formatting in PHP scripts.
To enable PHP Intl with PECL can be used.
pecl install intl
On a plain RHEL/CentOS/Fedora, PHP Intl can be install using yum
yum install php-intl
On Ubuntu, PHP Intl can be install using apt-get
apt-get install php5-intl
Restart Apache service for the changes to take effect.
That's it
For those who get Package not found error try sudo apt-get install php7-intl then run composer install in your project directory.
I had the same problem in windows
The error was that I had installed several versions of PHP and the Environment Variables were routing to wrong Path of php see image example
I'm using Mac OS High Sierra and none of these worked for me. But after searching a lot I found one that worked!
This may seem trivial, but in fact about 2 months ago some clever guys made changes in brew repository, so doing just: brew install php71-intl will show you error with message that such recipe doesn’t exists.
Fortunately, there is. There is temporary fix in another brew repo, so all you have to do is:
brew tap kyslik/homebrew-php
brew install kyslik/php/php71-intl
SOURCE: http://blastar.biz/2018/04/14/how-to-enable-php-intl-extension-for-php-7-1-using-xampp-on-macos-high-sierra/
I use Linux Ubuntu 20, you can try this:
Check php installed modules:
php -m | grep intl
If there are no result(s) from this command, you should just go ahead and install the module:
sudo apt-get install php7.4-intl
you will need to change *php7.4 to your desired php version.
you should restart apache when you're done:
sudo service apache2 restart

Lost ability to run as sudo following MacPorts upgrade

I recently updgraded MacPorts from 1.9.2 to 2.0.3. Since then, I've lost the ability to run as sudo.
sudo: can't stat /opt/local/etc/sudoers: No such file or directory
sudo: no valid sudoers sources found, quitting
Unsure if these are related, but I'm wondering what the best course of action is at this point.
port installed returns
sudo #1.7.4p2_0
sudo #1.7.7_0 (active)
Further investigation suggests I've installed MacPorts' sudo without an accompanying /opt/local/etc/sudoers file. I've managed to create such a file using visudo, copying the content of /etc/sudoers, chmod to 0440 and ownership to root:wheel.
I guess the question now is whether I should use MacPorts' sudo or uninstall it? And how did I end up with installing the MacPorts' sudo?
Not a Mac man myself, but have a look at this page:
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man5/sudoers.5.html
...and also a look at the man page for visudo, which is used to edit the sudoers file:
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man8/visudo.8.html#//apple_ref/doc/man/8/visudo

Tomcat is installed with CATALINA_HOME in /usr/share/tomcat6 and CATALINA_BASE in /var/lib/tomcat6

I think it is a good question.
I found it also confusing. I installed tomcat few minutes ago (after a while) and I notice they are two different "webapps" places.
at /usr/share/tomcat6/webapps/default_root/
at /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/ROOT/
The content of both are the same but none of them are symlinks.
When I started tomcat it says:
Quote:
This is the default Tomcat home page. It can be found on the local filesystem at: /var/lib/tomcat6/webapps/ROOT/index.html
Tomcat6 veterans might be pleased to learn that this system instance of Tomcat is installed with CATALINA_HOME in /usr/share/tomcat6 and CATALINA_BASE in /var/lib/tomcat6
So, based in this information, the /usr/share/... folder was kept for backward compatibility, right?
But according to what you posted libs are being read from the CATALINA_HOME instead of CATALINA_BASE.
Perhaps they still keep that default reference to prevent other systems to stop working after updating?
Good observation!
UPDATE:
I read this at: /usr/share/tomcat6/bin/catalina.sh :
Quote:
# CATALINA_HOME May point at your Catalina "build" directory.
#
# CATALINA_BASE (Optional) Base directory for resolving dynamic portions
# of a Catalina installation. If not present, resolves to
# the same directory that CATALINA_HOME points to.
When we read at: /etc/init.d/tomcat6 :
(at the beginning)
CATALINA_HOME=/usr/share/$NAME
(then...)
# Directory for per-instance configuration files and webapps
CATALINA_BASE=/var/lib/$NAME
However, If you try to start TOMCAT manually (as I did long time ago) with:
sudo /usr/share/tomcat6/bin/startup.sh
It displays:
Quote:
Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/share/tomcat6
Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/share/tomcat6
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/share/tomcat6/temp
Using JRE_HOME: /usr
touch: cannot touch `/usr/share/tomcat6/logs/catalina.out': No such file or directory
/usr/share/tomcat6/bin/catalina.sh: 357: cannot create /usr/share/tomcat6/logs/catalina.out: Directory nonexistent
So, why here CATALINA_BASE is set to the same as CATALINA_HOME?
/usr/share/tomcat6/logs/ do not exist, but exists in /var/lib/tomcat6/logs/
I see that my logs are writing into /var/lib/... when starting Tomcat from the init.d script. So its better starting it from there.
I'm not an expert on Tomcat but I was having this same problem and I was able to restart the server with the command:
sudo /etc/init.d/tomcat6 restart
CATALINA_HOME -- tells "org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap" where to look for required /lib /bin and other -- which are dependencies to run the server . It is basically your Tomcat installation home directory.
CATALINA_BASE -- expects a certain directory structure to scan for (once started). For example /conf to find server.xml and web.xml which is specific to a web application. as long as you have got that directory structure and content, CATALINA_BASE can be any directory.
I've seen that.
The proper and cute way is to create a "setenv.sh" script into your CATALINA_HOME/bin folder(in your case "/usr/share/tomcat6/bin/setenv.sh").
The contents of your setenv.sh:
#!/bin/sh
export CATALINA_BASE=/new/catalinabase/path
So there is no need to modify catalina.sh by yourself. If setenv.sh is present in bin directory, catalina.sh will execute it automatically.
I can't tell you why CATALINA_HOME and CATALINA_BASE are the same in startup.sh (resp. catalina.sh) - that's really strange.
Of course you can start Tomcat via the init.d script. But sometimes you may want to start it via startup.sh/catalina.sh (e.g. for debugging).
So as a workaround/hack you can correct the problem by adding the following line at the beginning of /usr/share/tomcat6/bin/catalina.sh
export CATALINA_BASE=/var/lib/tomcat6
I could do this by executing this command,
$ service tomcat6 start
which reinitialized my CATALINA_* path and starts the tomcat instance
chmod +x startup.sh
chmod +x shutdown.sh
chmod +x catalina.sh
chmod +x setclasspath.sh
chmod +x bootstrap.jar
chmod +x tomcat-jni.jar
hope it will be work.
