Capture does nothing

[Dark]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to use Fiddler Everywhere on macOS Mojave (10.14.4) and the proxy does not appear to enable after clicking the Capture button.  When I initially installed Fiddler and opened it, I was prompted for my password (but it still did not appear to be capturing any networking traffic).  I also got the password prompt the first time I closed the app.

 

I have since re-opened the app a few times and tried to click the Capture button, but nothing happens.  I also no longer ever get any password prompts (either on app open/close/capture button click).  I've tried to uninstall + reinstall the app as well with no change in behavior.

 

I also tried to run the app using sudo (using the following command):
sudo /Applications/Progress\ Telerik\ Fiddler.app/Contents/MacOS/Progress\ Telerik\ Fiddler

 

Please find the logs (electon.log and netcore.log) attached.

 

Any idea what might be going wrong?

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback. There is another thread about this issue here. I am going to answer your question there.

Simeon - thanks for your reply.

Prior to you posting, I figured out that the issue gets resolved after removing the ~/.fiddler/ directory (I was going to reply to my post in case anyone else encountered the same issue).

As a side note: you might want to clean up that directory when the application is uninstalled since that is potentially a step that someone would try to perform in case they run into these kinds of issues (as I did).

Thanks
