CLI Interpreter

Hello,

I know, it's not the first question of this kind, but up to know I was unble to add an CLI Interpreter.

I am working with XAMPP on another machine in the same AD-Domain.

I am able to connect to the xampp-machine using putty, but the CLI Interpreter from Settings / Languages & Fremworks / PHP keeps telling me "Connection to xampp... failed. Connection failed." - using the SSH Credentials. Since I copy and pasted host, user and PW from PhpStorm to putty, there are no typos.

Connection to MySQL DB is working. Debugging is not. Probably because of the interpreter.

By the way, I am using PhpStorm 2017.2.4

Any help appreciated - thx

Oliver

Hello,

Are you able to add this machine as SFTP host into Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Deployment?

If yes then try to create a remote CLI interpreter based on this deployment configuration and check if it will work.

Note that for web application debugging you do not need to add an interpreter to your PhpStorm.

Hello Vladimir,

thx for your answer.

Unfortunately not. FTP yes, but no SFTP.

Debugging is working meanwhile.

So could you please tell me, what the CLI interpreters are needed for?

Thx

Hello Oliver,

Remote CLI interpreter is used for running and debugging CLI scripts or for running remote CLI tools like PHP Code Sniffer, Mess Detector and others.
