  • JAVA_HOME environment variable set (i.e. C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.7.0_45)

• Safari browser is recommended on Windows for new mobile drag & drop editor. You can install it from http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1531

  Otherwise Internet Explorer >=9 is required. 

Updating from Zend Studio 10.x

• Since Zend Studio 10.5 release we provide Mac OS X 64-bit packages only. This means there will be no updates available for 32-bit Zend Studio on  Mac OS X. A new installation of 64-bit Zend Studio is required. Existing workspaces can be used with new 64-bit installation.

• This version is backward compatible with all 10.x versions. To update add two new update sites in Help -> Install New Software -> Available Update Sites:

  • http://downloads.zend.com/studio-eclipse/updates
  • http://downloads.zend.com/studio-eclipse/updates-extra

  and select Help -> Check for updates.

Migrating to Zend Studio 10.6

• Zend Studio 10.6 starts with a default workspace: /Zend/workspaces/DefaultWorkspace10 

Known Issues

• ZendDebugger does not support thread-safe mode.

• Debug session is not started for both debugging an application and debug mode enabled against OpenShift target with zend-6.1 cartridge.

• Zend Studio Crashes with Segmentation Fault in KDE 4.11, see http://kb.zend.com/zend-studio-crashes-with-segmentation-fault-in-kde-4-11

• Zend Studio menus do not show or appear only partially in the menu bar of Ubuntu 13.10 and 14.04. The issue is caused by Ubuntu's bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/1208019. See http://kb.zend.com/zend-studio-menu-does-not-work-on-ubuntu-13-10/

• Using Zend Studio's built-in PHP 5.5 binaries with Xdebug may be problematic on Windows and MacOS.

  • On Windows no Xdebug package is suggested for downloading at http://xdebug.org/wizard.php (http://bugs.xdebug.org/view.php?id=1028)
  • On MacOSX Xdebug requires an older version of Zend Engine API than provided by Zend Studio binaries. Workaround: manually build Xdebug, following steps described at http://xdebug.org/wizard.php 

• To display class inheritance charts in the documentation generated by PHPDocumentor installation of Graphviz is required. Due to compatibility issues, please install 

  • Graphviz version 2.30.1 on Mountain Lion
  • Graphviz version 2.28.0 on Windows and other Mac OS X distributions

  from http://www.graphviz.org/pub/graphviz/stable/

• Running mobile project as Web Mobile application (or using 'Preview Mode' of mobile drag & drop editor) on Windows requires Internet Explorer 'Access data sources across domains' option enabled:

  • Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> Security tab -> Security level ->
  • Custom level -> Miscellaneous -> Access data sources across domains -> Enable -> OK -> Apply

• Due to Zend's contribution of PHP Code Formatter to opensource Eclipse PDT project the namespace of custom formatter preferences has changed and settings exported from/created with Zend Studio 10.0.1 will not work out of the box in Zend Studio >= 10.1.0.

  Workaround:

  • Export Formatter Profile using Studio 10.0.1 and replace all occurrences of "com.zend" by "org.eclipse" in the exported XML file before importing it into Zend Studio >= 10.1.0.

• Cloud Connected Mobile project on IBM i: Due to a limitation in the rewrite module of the IBM i Apache, rewrite rules that enables pretty URLs will not work out of the box. For example, instead of using:

  • http://server.address/appname/getCustomers one would have to use:
  • http://server.address/appname/index.php/getCustomers

  Workaround:

  • Manually enable pretty URLs by adding a RewriteBase statement to the .htaccess file, right below RewriteEngine On. For example for the case above:

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /appname
    

• Cloud Connected Mobile project works out-of-the box only when deployed to Apache server (.htaccess based configuration). Running Cloud Connected Mobile project on IIS Server requires URL Rewrite module with imported rules from .htaccess file.

• The default Apache 'Server API CGI/FastCGI' mode on Windows does not forward the 'Authorization' request header; this will cause the Zend Server Gateway Authentication step to fail. 

  Workaround: 

  • Uncomment the following two lines in the public/.htaccess file of Cloud Connected Mobile project:

    RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
    RewriteRule .* - [e=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1]
    

• Using Android Development Toolkit (ADT) on Linux x86-64 requires installation of additional libraries:

  • Ubuntu:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
    sudo apt-get install lib32stdc++6
    

  • Fedora:

    sudo yum install redhat-lsb.i686
    

• Several issues reported when installing Zend Toolbar on Linux Ubuntu and Fedora with Mozilla Firefox browser. As a workaround, download and install the browser extension from:
