How can I get Xdebug v3.1.1 to display output "beautified" with PHP 8.1? Is it necessary to turn on some specific Xdebug configuration option in php.ini?

This is how I need the output on screen to look like:

Stack trace output

And this is how it currently looks like:

Current php error output to screen

This is my current Xdebug configuration in php.ini for PHP 8.1:

[XDebug]
xdebug.client_host=127.0.0.1
xdebug.client_port=9000
xdebug.mode=debug
xdebug.profiler_append = 0
xdebug.start_with_request=trigger
xdebug.remote_handler = dbgp
xdebug.start_with_request=yes
xdebug.log_level = 0
xdebug.force_display_errors=1
xdebug.force_error_reporting=1
xdebug.show_error_trace=1
xdebug.show_exception_trace=1
xdebug.cli_color = 1
xdebug.trace_format=1 
xdebug.show_local_vars=1

You need to also list develop in the debug mode value:

xdebug.mode=debug,develop

P.S. Rather unrelated... but better stick to the new Xdebug port (9003) and not old one 9000 -- it was changed for a reason (as it was often conflicting with php-fpm that also uses the same TCP 9000 port by default).

Sure, if it works then do not change .. but it's better to use safer option (may save a lot of troubleshooting time on a new machine/different setup in a future).

ALSO: xdebug.remote_handler = dbgp -- this is Xdebug v2, does nothing in Xdebug 3. And dbgp is the ONLY possible value anyway...

Thanks, this has resolved the issue for me.

For anyone else who is having this issue, and xdebug.mode includes develop...

Check log_errors. If it's On and there's no error_log value set, either set error_log or turn log_errors off. This also resolves the problem of getting only an error and not the rest of the page when an error occurs, at least on PHP 8.2.
