Configure the Eclipse-based PHP development environment in Ubuntu

Goals: Ubuntu with Eclipse + pdt + xdebug + php + apache preparation of php scripts and web development environment installation process: 1, in the new Ubuntu choose to install the following software apachephp5php5-cliphp5-xdebug after installation, (You may need to start apache: sudo/etc/init. d/apache2start. You can try to enter the URL http in firefox.

Objective: To use Eclipse + pdt + xdebug + php + apache in Ubuntu to prepare the php script and webpage development environment

Installation Process:

1. Choose to install the following software in the new Ubuntu version.

Apache
Php5
Php5-cli
Php5-xdebug

After installation, (you may need to start apache: sudo/etc/init. d/apache2 start. You can try to enter the URL: http: // localhost in firefox to check whether it works. The webpage should be visible.

2. Install eclipse + pdt

Eclipse is the most powerful IDE and the most difficult IDE to use. (This is my opinion. Do not quarrel with me)

After half a day of preparation, I finally downloaded PDT 1.0.3 All-In-One (Linux GTK). No way, I had to install it myself.

Suggestion: if you are a beginner in eclipse like me, use all-in-one. If you need to use C ++, install a separate C ++ version. If you need other languages, install a separate eclipse. The method is stupid and a waste of space, but it is relatively simple. No way. I am a newbie.

3. Add XDEBUG to PHP. ini.

Php. ini contains three folders in/etc/php5/: apache2, cli, and conf. d. We should modify php under apache2 and cli. ini. in conf. d. There is an xdebug. the INI file records the xdebug file path. ha, I'm not a veteran. Some experts don't say this.

Use the superuser to open the above two php. ini files and add the following code:

[Xdebug]
Xdebug. remote_enable = 1
Xdebug_remote_host = "localhost"
Xdebug. remote_port = 9000
Xdebug. remote_handler = "dbgp"
Zend_extension =/usr/lib/php5/20060613 + lfs/xdebug. so

4. Modify the default website path of apache.

Of course, it is better to create another virtual directory, but the computer we use is generally not a server. The modification method is as follows:

Open the preparation file with the superuser, path:/etc/apache2/sites-available/default

Modify the path to the place where your php project is stored. I don't know much about it either. I modified the following two parts:

DocumentRoot/home/fsp/workspace/pdt/

/Home/fsp/workspace/pdt/is the path for storing PHP projects.

5. Restart apache

Sudo/etc/init. d/apache2 restart

6. Open eclipse, create a PHP project, create a PHP webpage, and add two codes.

Echo phpinfo ();

Save and test the tracing result in firefox. Pay attention to the path here. You must find the file. For example, my

Http: // localhost/phptest/newfile. php

7. Prepare an eclipse Browser

Open eclipse, find window-> preferences-> general-> web browser, and check whether there is any browser. If not, add it. Of course, it is firefox.

8. Prepare running and debugging options

Window-> preferences-> PHP-> php executables-> add-> Settings are as follows:

Php5

/Usr/bin/php5 (note that you should select php5 here, not php, because we install php5-xdebug)

9. Continue to prepare debug (trouble)

Window-> preferences-> PHP-> run/debug-> perspectives-> you can find php scripts and php web pages.

, Respectively set their debug and run the program.

10. After the PHP script is created, debug and run it.

Open Run-> Open Debug Dialog, select the name and environment required for debugging, and check carefully.

Then you can perform one-step debugging.
