Fiddler - Debug on localhost

Most of the time, web developer wants to see web traffics against localhost. If you are working with Fiddler, and by now, you should realise that Fiddler is not working with localhost or 127.0.0.1.

It is documented in fiddler website.

Some workaround is
  1. Use machine name instead of localhost. That is http://my_machine_name/
  2. Use your local IP address. Check with ipconfig command
  3. If you're using Fiddler v2.1.8 or later, just use http://ipv4.fiddler to hit localhost on the IPv4 adapter, or use http://ipv6.fiddler to hit localhost on the IPv6 adapter
  4. Add a . at localhost. That is http://localhost./myweb
