How can conflicting PHP versions on a Mac affect the functionality of xdebug?
Conflicting PHP versions on a Mac can affect the functionality of xdebug because xdebug needs to be compatible with the PHP version that is being used. To solve this issue, you can specify the correct PHP version in your php.ini file by updating the "zend_extension" path to point to the correct xdebug.so file for the PHP version you are using.
zend_extension="/path/to/xdebug.so"
