How to debug php artisan serve in PHPStorm?

I am using PHPStorm for develop my PHP web pages. All work fine with my Apache Server, XDebug, and a simple web PHP project. No problem.

But, when I try to debug a Laravel 5.1 Web Project using php artisan serve, I can't debug the breakpoints. It's like the php artisan serve use another server... and on my PHPStorm, I always see:

Waiting for incoming connection with ide key '(randomNumberHere)'

I have configured all in PHPStorm (enabling remote debug, correct port, etc.), and with "normal" PHP projects all works fine.

Can someone tell me if I need to change something?

Thanks!

You should take a look at the php.ini file loaded by your php-cli, since it's the one used by artisan. Use the command 'php -i' and find informations about the ini files loaded, than compare with the apache ini files, to see if you can tell what is lacking.
