Check if xdebug is working

To check if Xdebug is working, you can try the following steps:

  1. Make sure that Xdebug is installed and enabled in your PHP installation. You can check this by creating a PHP file with the following code:
<?php
phpinfo();
  1. Run this PHP file in your web server and search for the xdebug module in the output. If it is listed, then Xdebug is installed and enabled.

  2. You can also check if Xdebug is working by adding a breakpoint to your code and then triggering it by making a request to your web server. For example, you can add the following line to your PHP code:

xdebug_break();
  1. When you make a request to your web server, Xdebug should halt the execution of your code at this line and give you the opportunity to debug it.
