xdebug_on/off seems to cause 500 error

[roborourke]

I don't know if there's specific config related to nginx in xdebug at the moment but I found that I got a 500 error from the server after running the xdebug_on command.

Can anyone else reproduce this?

Haven't ported those commands for apache yet.

You should be able to ssh in and use a2enmod xdebug and then restart apache to enable ... a2dismod xdebug and restart to disable.

when I type in a2mode xdebug in ssh, I get "Module xdebug does not exist"

I tried to install xdebug manually. But after I do this, I can't no longer connect to the MySQL database. What am I missing?

Warning: mysql_connect(): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' (2) in /srv/www/default/testing/wp308/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1409

I'd have to know how you installed xdebug. This likely installed/upgraded your PHP binary and (potentially) overwrite some configurations somewhere.
