Yet another fiddler can't get it to capture post.

Similar to this [SO Post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16994111/cant-get-fiddler-to-capture-local-traffic-to-iis) I have spent two hours now reading and trying different solution yet none of them allow me to see my fiddler web api traffic.

As a side note my code is working I am just focused on getting fiddler to show me the api calls.

I will describe my setup then what I have tried.

My Web API is a separate MVC 6, EF 7 project running on port 63381

My ASP.NET MVC 5 web client project is running on port: 59722

> 
> <http://localhost:59722/>

A typical action controller in the mvc client:

```
//Controller CTOR
public ClientController()
{
  client = new HttpClient();
  client.BaseAddress = new Uri("http://localhost:63381/api/MyApi");
  client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Clear();
  client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
}

//Action within ClientController
public async Task<JsonResult> AddNewSubCategory()
{
   HttpResponseMessage responseMessage = await client.PostAsJsonAsync(url2, content);
   if (responseMessage.IsSuccessStatusCode)
   {
     return Json("[{Update Success}]", JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
   }
     return Json("[{Error Updating}]", JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
   }
}

```

1. Added the block to 32 & 62 machine.config. Restarted visual studio did *NOT* restart machine or any other service. This did not work.
2. Added the block to the client web.config and this didn't work.
3. Changed localhost to machinename:port
Specifically I changed <http://localhost:63381/api/MyApi> to <http://gpgvm-pc:63381/api/MyApi>
4. Modified Global.asax with:

ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = new RemoteCertificateValidationCallback(delegate { return true; });
5. Fiddler custom rules
6. Reverse proxy
7. Set fiddler listening on a different port.

At this point I surrender. It seems to me #1 should work to capture everything but I am obviously still doing something wrong because I can get fiddler to capture one or the other but NOT the client calling off to the client???

Update:

My machine locked and after reboot I started seeing the api calls so this issue was something with my machine. So sorry to bother.
