I had imported my project using SVN and the Default Web Browser had the absolute path to firefox on my mac. I changed this to /usr/bin/firefox and everything is working.

I followed this tutorial very carefully and have xdebug installed correctly. My problem is that from PDT I cannot debug in a web page because it stalls with the message "waiting for XDebug Session". I CAN use the script debug option. My php ini and using cli seem to report everything is as it should be. Furthermore I can actually write in XDebug function calls and get results. The anal side of me would like to get it working fully though, I have one of those personalities that can't stand inperfection! Any ideas apreciated. Hi I really hope somebody can help.

That's what I have and its working now, but it was not working before... so just after read your comment I went into my xdebug.ini with the intention of cut&paste its contents to the php.ini file to check if it solves also my problem but then I note that the double quotes on remote_host and remote_port values looks a bit weird, just a bit. I think I cut'n'pasted them from this webpage: http://techmania.wordpress.com/2008/07/02/debugging-php-in-eclipse-using-xdebug/ And they was not pure ASCII characters. Effectively, I do a test with phpinfo and in xdebug section I found extrange characters on those fields: xdebug.remote_handler ”dbgp” ”dbgp” xdebug.remote_host ”localhost” ”localhost” So, I just change these weird quotes by normal double quotes, and everything began to work. I think that's very possible that you've cut'n'paste the configuration from the same place, as there was a guy called "Sky" also posting comments there, and therefore your problem was the same. Later, you probably modify your php.ini copying data by hand of from this page instead of the other one, so the quotes was right ASCII characters. Regards, Sky, I think I know what was you problem, as I’ve resolved the same just a minute ago:
