I'm trying to run some local testing on iDevices but I must be missing something in the setup. I did that before when it all worked, so maybe someone can helpout:
I'm using Fiddler on a windows machine, have all devices set up via proxies and yes it also captures the traffic of the iphone and ipad.
I've got a few localhost vhosts set up, so running
http://mydomain.local
this works swimmingly on the windows phone via proxy to fiddler. but the iphone and ipad just says the server stopped responding.
The firewall is completely turned off and I can see all other traffic from the iDevices, so what could be the issue? Why does the iphone not read the hosts file but the windows phone does?
Almost a year late, but I had the same problem and can confirm that iOS does reserve ".local" to identify Bonjour-accessible devices
If possible just change your domain extension to something else like ".lan" and your requests will go through the Fiddler proxy as expected.

With device manual proxy to my Charles IP address, not seeing any traffic or prompt to allow traffic in Charles Proxy. S10 device appears to load all traffic when navigating to various URLs.
Even charlesproxy.com/ssl loads website but doesn't initiate a certificate to download.
All other android devices tested on same setup works fine. Issue seems specific to Samsung S10
So what seemed to have worked for me just now, with my mac (I assume it would be something similar for Windows) I just opened a regular browser, went to chls.pro/ssl and download the certificate file.
From there I sent it to my S10+ and opened it, which then installed it properly.
If you're trying to hook up to Android devices then beware that Google introduced security measures to not allow proxy monitoring in I believe Android 6 or 7. If the other devices you had worked fine on Android then it's probably because you were using an earlier version of Android, or, you had a debug build that allowed for proxy monitoring. I know there's a SO post somewhere that talks about this "pinning" and I know our company does this as well with debug apk's. If neither of those solutions work then it's probably a matter of getting the Charles certificate installed correctly on that phone but without more information it is hard to diagnose. Hope this helps you
This morning I was able to capture https traffic on the version of Fiddler I had installed. I was prompted about a Fiddler update available. I clicked the "Next time" option. After closing fiddler and reopening a few minutes later the update was automatically installed (v4.6.20172.31233, 64-bit). Following that update, I am not able to take any traces from my iOS device. I am on a work computer capturing https traffic from my iPhone to monitor a mobile app.
It should also be noted that I'm unable to capture any traffic or visit any web pages on my iPhone when going through the IP and port 8888 setup with Fiddler. Seems like all data is blocked (even when I'm not attempting to capture https with a trusted certificate).
I have attempted a few things:
Went through these steps (which I had done months ago to originally setup fiddler), and it didn't resolve the situation: http://docs.telerik.com/fiddler/Configure-Fiddler/Tasks/ConfigureForiOS
I checked my Tools > Options and everything seems to be configured the same as it was previously.
I double, triple and quadruple confirmed that my iPhone's IP Address and port are correctly matching what fiddler shows when I hover the mouse over the "Online" icon. I confirmed that I'm on the same wifi network on both my laptop and iPhone.
I removed the trusted certificate from my iPhone, but could not download a new one because when I go to ipv4.fiddler:8888 the page does not load. "Safari cannot find the page" and neither can Chrome (from my iPhone). FiddlerMachineIP:8888 loads on my laptop browser, but not my iPhone browser. (I didn't post full http:// links on this post because I have a new stack overflow account and it won't let me yet)
I downloaded the certificate plugin for iOS once more.
I reset my Fiddler Root Certificate by selecting Tools > Options > HTTPS tab > Actions > Reset All Certificates.
I attempted step 4 above again, no success
I closed and reopened fiddler multiple times between each step to restart it, but no success.
Restarted my laptop and iPhone (because why not?)
Do you have any suggestions for what else I can try? Any help is much appreciated. The only thing that was changed was the version of Fiddler. After that, I attempted to run through all the steps above. Currently I'm in a situation where I cannot download the certificate to trust on my iPhone. I don't know what is preventing me from doing that step.
Edit: I reinstalled fiddler and went through all the setup pages. It didn't seem to fix the situation. My phone for some reason will not load the page necessary to download the certificate (ipv4.fiddler:8888)
Try checking the certificate's full trust settings at Settings > General > About > Certificate Trust Settings. Make sure the DO_NOT_TRUST_FiddlerRoot is enabled for full trust.
Disable Windows Firewall and try again. I faced the same problem, and it helped.
I'm currently using my iPhone to connect to my local environment on my Macbook. The part that won't work is that my local MUST be https, but its certificate is invalid. Because of this, the phone refuses to load pretty much all of the page. Does anyone know how to circumvent this? I have searched and do not find any settings on iPhone to get around it.
To add to this, here's how I'm connecting: iPhone plugged into Macbook via usb. Both connected to same wifi. In Safari, I type in https://[IP Address of my machine]:[port for server].
I am building a .NET website with MonoDevelop on OSX Lion that is targeted for mobile devices.
On my desktop's browser, I am able to access the site via http://127.0.0.1:8080, but I would like to view it on my physical iPhone (I don't want to use the XCode simulator).
My iPhone and Mac are on the same network and I have enabled Web Sharing. I can actually get to the default Apache index.html (http://192.168.1.104:80) page, but I am not able to get to my site (http://192.168.1.104:8080).
I'm newer to the Mac and even less familiar with network management, so I hope I'm missing something very simple.
You may as well turn off web-sharing because web-sharing only operates the built-in Apache web-server.
What is happening is that the web-server that MonoDevelop is hosting your pages on has been set up to only allow connections coming from localhost. If this is the problem, entering in the lan IP of the OS X machine on the OS X machine will likely also not work (if the IP filtering work like it does on Apache).
You need to find the config files for the MonoDevelop server and allow access from addresses other than 127.0.0.1
I'm researching remote control testing for an app that'll be installed on the new iPod Touch and can't tell for certain from everything that I've read whether or not an installed app can or can't open any ports for remote test instructions (that's a mouthful : ) We created something like this for the Android using adb port forwarding and telnet, and it worked really well. Is there any chance something similar could be done on an iPhone or iPod without jailbreaking??
Sure, you have access to the traditional Unix networking layer and a Cocoa layer built on top of that as well.
