title: PhpStorm debugger not stopping at BreakPoints; keeps waiting for xdebug _SESSION_

  <hr>
  
  <p>I'm running localhost web server on my Windows machine with WebMatrix and IISExpress. I've installed PHP and Xdebug in it and they both are working.</p>
  
  <p>I have a local WordPress install.</p>
  
  <p>I'm now trying to get PhpStorm to debug it using Xdebug.</p>
  
  <p>When I run PhpStorm it launches the web app in the browser with relevant debugging parameters in the browser.</p>
  
  <p><strong>IDE KEY is matching</strong></p>

  <p><code>xdebug.remote_port</code> is configured correctly. (Later I found that this is wrong, but not erroneous. It should be port 9000)</p>

  <p>But it seems Xdebug never gets to communicate with PhpStorm. PhpStorm keeps listening, and the execution runs completely without stopping at any  break-points.</p>
