Start by reproducing the WebSocketException with a proxy-provider proxy whose credentials work for HTTP requests, then inspect how the WebSocket connection handles the proxy authentication challenge. Done means the reported proxy configuration connects successfully without the exception.

Deny CONNECT to other than SSL ports

#http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports
