PHPMD cannot run with parameters

Question

I've been trying to configure phpmd to work with PhpStorm, but I'm stuck here. Here's the error I have:

PHP Mess Detector
phpmd: Can not correctly run the tool with parameters:
C:/Users/me/AppData/Local/Temp/___18.tmp/folder/myclass.php
xml codesize,controversial,design,naming,unusedcode
Possible tool process hangup after 5 sec.

I am using PhpStorm on Windows. The strange thing is that it seems to run when I do Code > Inspect Code, just not with live inspection. Thing is my path isn't this one, my files are located in C:/Users/Code/myapp.

Can anyone help me with this error?

Sounds similar to youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-16929 -- either try increasing timeout value in Settings/Preferences from 5 sec to 10 or so .. or try configuring your PHP to not to use xdebug 9either at all or only on debug request -- see last comment in aforementioned ticket). – Eleanore

Answer 1

In my case,the problem was that the Tool Process Timeout was setted to 5 second. I set to 30 second and now it works fine ! We can configure it through Languages & Framework | PHP | Mess Detector | Development Environnement | Configuration ... | Tool process timeout, sec[1..30]

I suppose that this solution is also ok for PHP Code Sniffer
