NuSphere PHP Debugger

[crazyrunner]

Hey folks! We are running under a shared plan. We are looking at using NuShere PHP-ED as our IDE. It has a PHP Debugger which uses a zend module to allow you to remote PHP code debugging, set breakpoints, et al. The problem is I'm not sure how (or if we are allowed in shared hosting) to make the required changes to the php.ini file as described below. If it will work, how do I do it for a shared account.

Thanks!

1. copy dbg.so-4.4.x module into directory on the server

2. Just add the following lines in php.ini

zend_extension=<directory>/dbg.so-4.4.x

Note: this line should appear before any other zend_extension(s).
Note: if debugger module is loaded using this way, please make sure extension=dbg.so (or extension=php_dbg.dll) line is removed or commented out.

3. Add the following debugger settings to php.ini

[debugger]
debugger.enabled=on
debugger.profiler_enabled=on
debugger.hosts_allow=host1 host2 host3
debugger.hosts_deny=ALL
debugger.ports=7869, 10000/16

a) host1 host2 and host3 are host names or IP or network addresses allowed to start debug sessions. If you run debug session though an SSH tunnel , you need to list just one local IP address only (localhost).

You will need a Dedicated server for that script because it look's like the main servers php.ini has to be modified and shared clients cannot access them files.

I wasn't sure if you could add modules to zend by modifying the local copy of php.ini.

You should ticket support about this, they may be able to install this for you.
