Using Fiddler2 to trace HTTPS SharePoint Calls

Question

I'm using Fiddler2 to trace the https sharepoint calls. After starting the fiddler and browisng the https site it throws the error:

Access Denied (connect_method_denied): .... This is typically caused by an HTTPS URL that uses a port other then the default of 443.

Any suggestion to resolve the issue will be very helpful.

Thanks, Mac

Answer 1

That message is coming from your upstream proxy server. The question is why you're not seeing it in IE itself. Try disabling proxy chaining inside Tools > Fiddler Options > Connections and see if that helps.
