How are your computer and the other computer connected? Where is the web server? It's likely that you'll be running on either a switched Ethernet network (the switches don't normally forward the traffic from other computers) or a wireless one, which is very similar to a switched network, but also has it's own issues.

See the wiki page on capture setup, particularly the ones for your network media type as listed at the bottom of the page.

sorry. i forget to say, that that is Wi-Fi network. And on another computer (Windows 7) everything working. So probably problem in my comp (Windows 8).

You'll need to have a look at the WLAN capture page then, note capturing the WLAN traffic of other devices is very difficult using windows.
