seackei | Last updated: Aug 19, 2019 07:00PM UTC

Im using firefox to run test my website on localhost.I configured the proxy settings so that burp suite can intercept it.But with all the correct settings,the traffic is still not intercepted.Yesterday it was working fine,i went to sleep woke up and its not working anymore. Configurations I used : https://imgur.com/a/wdhcfv7

Ur firefox setting proxy is wrong.You need to remove "localhost,127.0.0.1" from the no proxy fields box.

Hi, As Mekadon has noted, removing the entries from the No proxy for field should resolve this issue.

Go to about:config in firefox Chang the firefox setting network.proxy.allow_hijacking_localhost to true

For the latest versions of Firefox, MTK's answer is correct. network.proxy.allow_hijacking_localhost needs to be altered now.
