You are right. It was getting redirected for installation. So I did the installation and tried to debug again.
No luck. This time it did not get redirected, the URL had the debug parameter as
http://localhost/pra/index.php?XDEBUG_SESSION_START=netbeans-xdebug
Netbeans, however, was not able to connect still. It kept on waiting and when i manually cancelled the wait process, it said either xdebug is either not installed or not configured properly.
Please help
