## #44276 — Greg Beaver — 2009-06-14T17:25:11+00:00

Hi,

I just updated cvs for my main test bed (my last full update was a
couple of weeks ago) and xdebug was no longer loaded.  I had been
loading it via:

zend_extension_debug=/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/debug-non-zts-20090115/xdebug.so

and all was fine (I have the debug build).

Today, it stopped loading.  After extensive debugging, I determined that
in fact zend_extension_debug is now ignored, and the correct line is:

zend_extension=/usr/local/lib/php/extensions/debug-non-zts-20090115/xdebug.so

If this is true, this needs to be added to the upgrade guide. 
Personally, I think it is a bug, but wanted to check here first.

Thanks,
Greg

It's on purpose, and yes, it needs to be added to the upgrading guide.

With the 5.2.9 tarball on Windows I use:
zend_extension_debug_ts="E:\PHPDEV\php-5.2.9\ext\xdebug\Debug_TS\php_xdebug.dll
which seems to work ok.
