Solution 1

It is possible that phpunit uses a different PHP version from the one that you have installed Xdebug for. Try to use php `which phpunit` --coverage-html ~/build/logs/coverage, if that works, then phpunit uses the wrong PHP by default. This could be a path issue.

Solution 2

Not sure if it helps but...

I had the same error when going through the phpunit tutorial - getting the error at chapter 7. http://phpunit.de/manual/current/en/organizing-tests.html

Took me a while to realise xdebug was set up in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini but not in /etc/php5/cli/php.ini.

Worked okay for me after copying the xdebug settings from apache2 to cli.

Solution 3

See your "php.ini" in the folder "cli" on php5, this not have the lines references for your xdebug. So, add the lines for xdebug.

I wrote my first program using Quick Basic just after I passed my (10+2) exam. It was a piano program which made sounds if anyone pressed a key from the keyboard. It was the year 1996. After that, in the year 1999, I wrote my first professional program named “Bangla Type Tutor” by which anyone can learn how to type in Bengali Language using Bijoy Keyboard Layout. I used Visual Basic 6.0 to develop the program. Since then, I have been developing programs which help various people in their practical business life. I have a numerous number of accounting software written in PHP and Visual Basic dot NET. I can work with a team or individually in self-motivated friendly environment.

I have a problem to install xdebug on my Ubuntu Server which is using xampp. I know in Stack Overflow there are several questions about this kind of problem but I did not find any solution.

First this is the output of php --version command:

Output of php --ini command:

xdebug

When I paste the output of phpinfo() in http://xdebug.org/wizard.php, the site shows the following:

Tailored Installation Instructions

Summary

Xdebug installed: 2.2.0
Server API: Command Line Interface
Windows: no
Zend Server: no
PHP Version: 5.3.8

Configuration File Path: /opt/lampp/etc
Configuration File: /opt/lampp/etc/php.ini
Extensions directory: /opt/lampp/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626

You're already running the latest Xdebug version

But here are the instructions anyway:

... ... ... (lines truncated) ... ... ...

I write this on my /opt/lampp/etc/php.ini at the bottom:

[xdebug]  
zend_extension = /opt/lampp/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20090626/xdebug.so  
xdebug.profiler_output_dir = "/tmp/xdebug"  
xdebug.profiler_enable = On  
xdebug.remote_enable = On  
xdebug.remote_host = "localhost"  
xdebug.remote_port = 10000  
xdebug.remote_handler = "dbgp"

Output of phpunit --version is as follows:

 PHPUnit 3.6.11 by Sebastian Bergmann.

Now my actual problem arises:

When I use the following command it shows that xdebug is not installed:

phpunit --coverage-html ~/build/logs/coverage

This command's output is as follows:

The Xdebug extension is not loaded. No code coverage will be generated.

Sorry, what is the purpose of the command -> php `which phpunit` ?

This wirks only if phpunit is symlinked in a system. In example, ... which cat could return /bin/cat. In this case which phpunit could return /usr/local/bin/phpunit`. Backticketd (``) instruction are interpreted so the command below is, in real, "$ php /usr/bin/phpunit --coverage-html ...." but the path could change.

This doesn't help understanding as it outputs the following :

# php `which phpunit`  --coverage-html ./cov Warning: require(PHPUnit/Autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/bin/phpunit on line 40 Call Stack:     0.0001     350936   1. {main}() /usr/bin/phpunit:0 Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'PHPUnit/Autoload.php' (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in /usr/bin/phpunit on line 40 Call Stack:     0.0001     350936   1. {main}() /usr/bin/phpunit:0
