I was busy for many days to find an installation (in 2012) for debugging Magento. Eclipse, Netbeans and PhpDeveloper all failed for XDebug (stopped only at first breakpoint) in a Xamp installation (my experience) and I could not load a ZendDebugger.dll as well. You find indeed a lot of outdated articles about this subject.

But finally I can debug Magento without problems (you need a debugger as a professional for Magento). I downloaded Zend Server CE and if you have a latest Eclipse PDT version downloaded (take the one from Zend) debugging works like a charm (all settings are done already by Zend, so no mistakes and wasting of time anymore). You should see when a webpage had finished that the php program had terminated (no error, is normal, for a next page php programs are started again). One problem yet Connect Manager does not install extensions anymore, BUT while debugging admin it works too (yes funny, but that’s Magento, it takes all your time). You can debug admin by adding /admin to the url in the debug browser window (just that simple).

I don’t know about setting it up in MacOS.. but yes I used to get timeout as well must be due to load on WAMP/MAMP. If you reload it will work.

Hi there!
It seems to work, good stuffff!

But when I start debug it’s shows a dialog that freeze out all the eclipse!
“Page load failed with error: The request timed out.”
And I can’t close it without quitting eclipse.

I had to copy ZendDebugger.so to “MAMP/bin/php/php5/zend/lib/” because i didn’t have it. Running Eclipse PDT MacOS 32…

Since I need to debug cart and checkout process (rounding error in 1.4.0.1), I’ll keep trying.. maybe setting a higher time-out..

Actually – it works!! Zend added a couple of superfluous slashes in the URL and once removed I can now dip in and out of the debugger as I go through the pages, allowing me to reach arbitrary breakpoints.

Something strange happens in certain file locations – I just get a ! notice message rather than the break – I think magento is hijacking something that the debugger is also using.
