I debug with PhpStorm 2016.3 my JavaScript code remotely using JetBrains IDE support plugin for Chrome (my Chrome version is 56.0.2924.87 (64-bit), plugin version is is 2.0.9).

When I try to open Developer tools in Chrome, JetBrains IDE support plugin instantly closes connection.

How it looks like

Is it possible to keep both PhpStorm debugging plugin up and see what is happening in Network tab in Chrome?

This is a limitation in Chrome:

We currently do not support multiple clients connected to the protocol simultaneously. This includes opening DevTools while another client is connected. On the bug tracker, crbug.com/129539 follows the issue; you can star it for email updates.

  • Thx for answer. Is it somehow possible to use Firefox for same thing? I couldn't find similar JetBrains extension for Firefox. – metamaker Mar 06 '17 at 17:34
  • @metamaker Honestly, no idea - I didn't even know this functionally existed in Chrome until I saw this question :) – James Thorpe Mar 06 '17 at 17:50

    Well ... you can debug JavaScript in Firefox ... but it's not so convenient as with Chrome. 1) https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/2016.3/run-debug-configuration-firefox-remote.html ; 2) https://blog.jetbrains.com/webstorm/2016/06/webstorm-2016-2-eap-162-646/ – LazyOne Mar 06 '17 at 19:32
  • @LazyOne Thanks for links! :) So, this means that JetBrains officially decided not to support all features in Firefox. – metamaker Mar 06 '17 at 22:28
