Breakpoint on the script that is being debugged, in the browser I launch the page on which I set the breakpoint

Answer 1

try with xdebug.remote_connect_back=1
or pass ?XDEBUG_SESSION_START=PHPSTORM in the parameters,
he needs to somehow know that you are starting debugging

Answer 2

Try setting PHP -> Debug -> DBGp Proxy Host to 127.0.0.1
Also in PHP -> Debug Debug Port set to 9001 as well as in PHP -> Debug -> DBGp Proxy Port

Answer 3

this is not the first time I see problems in the PhpStorm + xDebug + macOS bundle . I can not help with a solution, because. already tried to no avail =( But you can try to write to that person, mb there will be some clue - How to defeat xdebug?

Answer 4

still simple, this article helped me Configuring XDebug PHPStorm
the most important thing to do there is xdebug.remote_autostart=on
so that xdebug starts, not on a GET / POST request, but always listens to the connection. Then there will be no problems
