**Scenario:** We have code on our local machine and are remotely handling the code and database on a Remote Server (Virtual Machine). **Now we want to Debug our Code.** This is how we have configured Remote Debugging: **php.ini Code** [xdebug] zend_extension="/usr/lib64/php/modules/xdebug.so" xdebug.remote_enable=1 xdebug.remote_host=192.168.0.185 //My Local IP #export PHP_IDE_CONFIG="192.168.0.120" // Remote IP xdebug.remote_port=9000 xdebug.remote_log="/tmp/xdebug.log" xdebug.remote_cookie_expire_time=10000 xdebug.remote_timeout=5000 xdebug.profiler_enable = 1 xdebug.remote_enable=on xdebug.idekey=phpstorm-xdebug #xdebug.remote_connect_back =On Most of these settings are working properly until the end of the process. We have created the configuration based on this [Link][1] **Main Question** is when we are debugging my instance, it is not properly working and **not stopping on Breakpoints**.
