Installing PDT is relatively easy.

Install a JVM

Regardless of your operating system, you will need to install a Java virtual machine.

  • If using Windows, you may already have one installed, but upgrading won't hurt.
  • If using Linux, read this -- GCJ will NOT work.

Consider an IBM JDK or a Sun JDK. See below for minimum requirements. Note that if you are on a 64-bit platform and are using a 64-bit JRE, you need to use a 64-bit Eclipse build.

  • Download PHP EPP package from Eclipse Downloads page
  • Install PHP Development Tools via Help > Install new software

Eclipse 4.2 / Juno / PDT 3.1.1

Debugger

The PDT project does not contain server side implementation for PHP debugging and will welcome any open source or commercial implementation of the debug protocol.

PHP Executable Debugger

  • Install via update site: In the main menu, select Help | Install New Software..., add the site http://downloads.zend.com/pdt and follow the instructions.
  • Zend Executable Debugger - A free Eclipse plugin that adds PHP executable debug capabilities to the Eclipse environment.

PHP Web Server Debugger

Known Problems

  • If after installing PDT you do not see the PDT perspective, views/editors/file associations do not work, or your get "An error occurred" messages, try restarting Eclipse with the -clean flag.
  • You may find that your chosen mirror fails due to bug 203794. Until that bug is fixed, try another mirror, or try an FTP site instead of an HTTP site.
  • You may encounter problems on linux with non-existant cups servers in /etc/cups/client.conf (bug 242677). Try running with ./eclipse -Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.gtk.disablePrinting.
  • You may encounter this error message: Problem occurred: 'Selection Job titile' has encountered a problem. If so, you need to install DLTK 1.0.I200807181303 (or newer). Unpack the zip into your dropins folder (see From Zips above). See also bug 242947.
  • Another variation reported to work: PDT 2.0.0 N20080823 + DLTK Core 0.95.0.v20080716 + DLTK RDS 0.95.0.v20080623
  • If updating from a nightly build to a newer nightly, you will need to uninstall and then reinstall PDT. See bug 241341.
