Answer 1

The workaround for this is to change the browser settings. The browser can be configured to communicate with a proxy server in two ways. The first method is
to manually provide the URL of the proxy server for the browser to talk to. The other way is to provide a Java Script file with a .pac extension to tell the browser
what proxy to communicate with. In either case the browser can be told to ignore the proxy for calls made to certain URI which could also be on the local
machine or in the same subnet.
The Exception that Tomcat throws occurs when the browser is directed to contact the server directly without going through the proxy. This exception does not
occur if the browser is set to use the proxy for all types of URI.
This can be done in two ways:
1. Manually:
a. For Netscape Browser : Go to Edit-preferences-Advanced-Proxies, select manual, click the view button, enter the appropriate proxy entry into each of the
boxes, Leave the "No Proxy for:" entry blank.
b. For Internet Explorer : Go to tools-internet options, click on the connections tab, click on LAN settings button, Check the use proxy server option, Enter the
appropriate proxy URL and port number, Uncheck the "Byepass proxy for local addresses" option
2. Automatic: Through the .pac file
a. For Netscape:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
return "PROXY_URL_1", "PROXY_URL_2", ... ;
b. For Internet Explorer:
function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
return "PROXY_URL_1", "PROXY_URL_2", ... ;
Good Luck!
