I want to capture requests from QGIS WMS. So I set up Tinyproxy and configured QGIS: Settings\Options\Network and checked Use proxy for web access, set up localhost for Host, 8888 for Port and HttpProxy for Proxy type.
Now I am able to trace logs
sudo tail -f /var/log/tinyproxy/tinyproxy.log
That's what I got in the log when loading new WMS layer taken from example:

The layer is loaded and displayed. When I begin to move the map or zoom in the image is successfully reloaded, but that's all I have in the log:
CONNECT May 23 16:29:32 [8789]: Connect (file descriptor 6): localhost [127.0.0.1]
CONNECT May 23 16:29:32 [8789]: Request (file descriptor 6): CONNECT mrdata.usgs.gov:443 HTTP/1.1

Why are there no GetMap requests in tinyproxy log? How can I trace all the requests?
QGIS 2.18.4
