[xdebug-general] Re: xdebug

I use neither. As I explained to you, you have to use the xdebug helper of
your browser and put PhpStorm in listening mode. Look at this zero
configuration blog post from JetBrains

https://blog.jetbrains.com/webide/2011/02/zero-configuration-debugging-with-xdebug-and-phpstorm-2-0/

Please let me know if that works.
