Zend PHP debugger for Eclipse IDE will only work with a 32-bit version of Apache; by default Mac OS X uses a 64-bit version. To change Apache to run in 32 bit do the following:

# back up current version
$ sudo cp httpd httpd.uni
  
# extract 32 bit version
$ sudo lipo httpd -thin i386 -output httpd.i386 # Intel
  
# Copy to httpd
$ sudo cp httpd.i386 httpd # Intel

Note: Keep in mind that your newly liposuctioned httpd may be overwritten by OS X updates.

We need to do the same thing to PHP in order for it to work:

# back up current version
$ sudo cp php php.uni

# extract 32 bit version
$ sudo lipo php -thin i386 -output php.i386 # Intel

# Copy to httpd
$ sudo cp php.i386 php # Intel

Note: Keep in mind that your newly liposuctioned php may be overwritten when you update your PHP installation.
