Debugging a URL

This procedure describes how to debug a URL on a server to which you have access.

Note:

Your server must be running the Zend Debugger or XDebug in order for remote debugging and profiling capabilities to function.
The Zend Debugger comes bundled with Zend Server, but can also be downloaded as a separate component from http://www.zend.com/en/products/studio/downloads. For instructions on manually installing the Zend Debugger, see Installing the Zend Debugger.
