XDebug Breakpoints Initially Ignored with Visual Studio Code

[nunorcsousa]

PHP version: 7.0.30
XDebug version: 2.6.0
XDebug 2.6.0
VS Code 1.24.04
XAMPP 7.0.30-0

The issue is the Visual Studio Code doesn’t seem to function correctly with XDebug. Any breakpoints added are ignored.

My launch.json:

{
    "version": "0.2.0",
    "configurations": [

        {
            "name": "Listen for XDebug",
            "type": "php",
            "request": "launch",
            "port": 9000,
            "pathMappings": {
                "/opt/lampp/htdocs": "/opt/lampp/htdocs"
            },
            "log": true
        },
        {
            "name": "Launch currently open script",
            "type": "php",
            "request": "launch",
            "program": "${file}",
            "cwd": "${fileDirname}",
            "port": 9000
        }
    ]
} 

XDebug php.ini config:

[XDebug]
zend_extension = /opt/lampp/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20151012/xdebug.so
xdebug.remote_enable=1
xdebug.remote_autostart = 1
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_mode=req
xdebug.remove_connect_back=0
xdebug.remote_port="9000"
xdebug.profiler_enable=1
xdebug.remote_host="127.0.0.1"
xdebug.max_nesting_level=300
xdebug.remote_log=/opt/lampp/htdocs/tmp/xdebug.log

Adapter logfile (from setting "log": true in launch.json):

<- launchResponse
Response {
  seq: 0,
  type: 'response',
  request_seq: 2,
  command: 'launch',
  success: true }

I'm having the same problem - if I can help by providing any information please let me know.
PHP version: 7.1.14
XDebug version: 2.6.0
VS Code: 1.24.0
PHP Debug: 1.12.3
Docker image: webdevops/php-apache-dev
Local env: Mac OS High Sierra v10.13.4

In addition to the issue with breakpoints, not getting anything showing on debug sidebar (variables, call stack etc), even though details are printing to debug console.

AHA! Found a thread that referenced the need to use an absolute path to the local directory in the path mappings rather than using ${workspaceRoot}. Modified and restarted webserver to successful session. Halleleujah. I did look before I posted, I swear ;) Good luck @nunorcsousa - maybe this will help?

[kapersoft]

The variable ${workspaceRoot} is deprecated in favor of ${workspaceFolder}. See https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/variables-reference#_why-isnt-workspaceroot-documented

[neoacevedo]

Not working for me.
