PHP Path Mapping Help, Please

[Matteus]

Breakpoints aren't working in NetBeans 6.8 on Windows 7 running IIS 7. xdebug_break() works, and if I opt to break on first line, it works with some files. For the files that don't work I think it has to do with path mapping, because I rewrite the URLs...

d:\www\admin\customer.php is a page which includes a file: d:\www\inc\order_hist.php

customer.php is accessed via this URL: http://myserver/manage/customer.html (and it gets rewritten to d:\www\admin\customer.php). Breakpoints work in this file.

The include file is accessed as follows:
include_once("d:\www\inc\order_hist.php");
Using relative paths here aren't really an option because there are a gazillion includes written in this manner. FWIW, I have added this inc path to my global include path in NetBeans options.

In my xdebug log I see this:

Hello,

Go to Project Properties -> Run configuration -> Advanced and in Path Mapping add the lines in order to do the mapping.
Suggestion: Use the call stack to have a guide to the directories needing a Path mapping.

Hi, I am still struggling with this problem. See all the details at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13602534/xdebug-ignores-breakpoints-in-netbeans.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

In fact, exactly how should those path mappings look like?

I've used XDebug successfully for years without ever touching path mapping, but I've never used it for remote debugging.
