I am trying to link my vagrant instance with my php debugger, PhpStorm. I tried following the instructions at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki-Vagrant#Provisioning < https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki-Vagrant#Provisioning%3E and https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki-Vagrant/Advanced_usage#MediaWiki_de... < https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki-Vagrant/Advanced_usage#MediaWiki_de..., and installed XDebug in my chrome browser, but the connection isn’t happening. My debugger keeps saying “Waiting for incoming connection with ide key ‘#####’. Is there something missing here?
I'm not sure how much on those pages is still relevant today (apart from enabling the zend role in vagrant, which definitely makes XDebug a lot more reliable); debugging with PhpStorm works mostly out of the box. Just launch vagrant, enable XDebug with a cookie/browser plugin/whatever, enable listening to XDebug in PhpStorm by clicking the phone icon, then do something in the browser that triggers a HTTP request, and PhpStorm will open a setup dialog for the incoming debug request where you can match local and remote directories. You might need to make the relevant code locally accessible; see T88149 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T88149 about that. For CLI debugging you need to set up some environment variables as well; see T59676 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T59676.
If that does not work then you can set xdebug.remote_log="/vagrant/logs/xdebug.log" or something similar in a PHP config file and see if it says anything useful.
