php5_invoke xdebug: no action - module was disabled by maintainer for apache2 SAPI

Question

I was using Linux Mint 16, I performed the update today to version Linux Mint 17, updated everything correctly, but xdebug was not activated, so I uninstalled it and installed it again and I noticed that when I went to install xdebug, it showed this message warning you can not activate.

This is due to some security issue of the extension? How do I enable xdebug now this new updated installation?

I managed to manually activate again, the solution is to create a shortcut xdebug.ini file and paste it in the loading extensions folder.

Create a shortcut xdebug.ini file to your desktop:

/etc/php5/mods-available/xdebug.ini

The contents of this file is:

zend_extension=xdebug.so

Copy the shortcut created on the desktop to the folder:

/etc/php5/apache2/conf.d/
