One Answer:
If you are trying to capture localhost traffic on Windows, then you won't see anything in Wireshark, because WinPcap (the capturing subsystem on Windows) is unable to capture localhost traffic.
Either run two distinct systems. One client and one server, then try to capture traffic between then, which should work with much problems. If you need to run everything on localhost, you'll need a different sniffer! Please check the answers to the following question: Regards answered 16 Apr '15, 11:59 Kurt Knochner ♦ thanks mr. kurt knochner,i will follow ur advice,currently working on a php project and using mysql server,just wanted to catch the traffic of my login pages if it is secure and encrypted well or not ,,just new at it (17 Apr '15, 01:40) rohit palampur |
What is your OS and which version and what is your Wireshark version?
Your question isn't very clear to me, can you rephrase it?
