Problems Launching Xdebug debugger in Eclipse hangs at 78%. 3 hours of testing and still no closer.
Configuration: Windows 10, XAMPP 1.8.2 - PHP 7.0.9 (php.ini below)
Eclipse: Version: Mars.2 Release (4.5.2) Build id: 20160218-0600
The xdebug.dll was recommended by https://xdebug.org/wizard.php
zend_extension=C:\xampp-7.0.9\php\ext\php_xdebug-2.5.0rc1-7.0-vc14.dll
xdebug.remote_enable=true
xdebug.remote_host=localhost
xdebug.remote_port=9001
xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
xdebug.remote_connect_back=1
xdebug.idekey=ECLIPSE_DBGP
Running phpinfo() I can see xdebug is installed/configured

Windows firewall allows Eclipse (changed to both private and public)
Eclipse configuration:
Xdebug global settings and Debug profile both set at 9001 port.
When running a debug configuration the browser launches with the correct parameters:
xxx.localtest.me/?XDEBUG_SESSION_START=ECLIPSE_DBGP&KEY=14805782647381
(NOTE: Both Firefox and IE were tested [as external browsers in Eclipse] with the same results) BUT Eclipse hangs with this message
Launching: Waiting for XDebug Session... (Launching Test (78%)
This is where I've been for the afternoon so if anyone can run their eyes over this setup and suggest some things I would be most appreciative.
I've looked around SO:
- Eclipse, XAMPP, xDebug - waiting for XDebug session - stays in 57%
- PHP debug configuration hangs - Waiting for XDebug session | Eclipse (Mars)
And others... trying almost every combination under the sun.
This has come off the back of an upgrade from an older XAMPP version with PHP 5.6 that had xdebug installed and working on this box. The Upgrade to PHP 7 is necessary due to dependencies by some newer PHP libraries.
