problem in using burp suite

I can't listen on 127.0.0.1:8080. I am able to listen on another port (for e.g. 127.0.0.1:8000). when I am connected to port 8000 ,{{ connection : close }} .I know, It should be {{connection : keep alive }}. i have watched every video on youtube , how to configure. but i am not able to solve this....problem 1: why cant I listen on port 8080.. problem 2 : {{ connection : close}}

Hi Aditya Thanks for your message. It's possible that something else is running on port 8080. You could check this out and disable anything that is running or use another port. The "Connection:" header deals with the client – server connection: HTTP/1.1 defines the "close" connection option for the sender to signal that the connection will be closed after completion of the response. For example, Connection: close in either the request or the response header fields indicates that the connection SHOULD NOT be considered `persistent' (section 8.1) after the current request/response is complete. This shouldn't affect your proxy listener. Please let us know if you need any further assistance.
