Apache on Windows and Fiddler

I need to monitor HTTP traffic in my dev env which is PHP/Apache/Windows. But Apache seems to refuse the HTTP requests coming from fiddler which sits between the browser and Apache.
Error is No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it

I suppose there should be some configuration on Apache which allows traffic via Fiddler. Can any one help me with it?

I'm going to assume that your browser and Fiddler are installed on the same machine and the deve enviroment is remote. I would install Wireshark and capture the native browser requests, and the ones proxied through Fiddler. See what is different between them. I would seem they would be comming form the same src IP, so I would look at the various HTTP request headers, and see what is different.

What windows version are you using?

What browser are you using?

Does the Apache reside on localhost?

Try disabling IP6 support (in the Fiddler options -> General -> uncheck "Enable IPv6 if available")

If apache is on localhost try http://machinename:port instead of http://127.0.0.1:port or http://localhost:port

Also check Fiddler know issues
