PHP header location-redirect doesn't work - why?

http-headers, php, xdebug

Solution

I reminded myself that I had xDebug installed on the actual test environment and after googling it, I found this site: http://bugs.xdebug.org/view.php?id=532

So I'll downloaded the last version of xDebug and changed the php.ini accordingly for the new file and everything works out like a charm. Headers are being sent - the redirecetion is done and errors are displayed.

Thanks everybody for your help!

Problem

Here's my file. I want to make it redirect, but nothing happens. To check out what is going on, I added an echo before the header part. It neither throws an error or redirect to index.php. What is wrong? I have turned output buffering on/off, but nothing makes it redirect. What can I do? ``` <? error_reporting(E_ALL); echo 'This is an error'; header("Location: login.php"); die(); ?> ```
