Zend Studio Platform Core Debugger, etc

[johnrcornell]

Hi Guys,

 

I promise I read through the Zend site on this, but I'm pretty confused, about the overlap and relationship between these things:

 

Zend Core

Zend Web Server Debugger

Zend Executable Debugger

Zend Platform

PDT

 

Basically, I have Zend Studio and I want to be able to debug my code on my remote Linux server. It *seems* like php-devel package comes with Zend Debugger (?????) but

 

# yum install php-devel

 

gets

 

Error: Missing Dependency: php = 5.1.6-3.7.fc6 is needed by package php-devel

 

Well I've got PHP 5.2.5 installed, so I don't know how an outdated version of PHP could be a dependency. Then there's xdebug, which seems to be an alternative to Zend Debugger, which you can install by

 

#pecl install xdebug

 

But

 

#pecl install zenddebugger

 

does nothing. So I can't use yum, pecl (and obviously not pear) to install Zend Debugger? And Executable debugger? Web Server debugger?

 

I'm so confused. Please help. Thank you.

Wow so nobody knows? No one understands the difference between these things?

 

That's disappointing.
