That is because the GET statement to the origin server should not
include http(s)://servername:port
So if you have a request for https://www.example.com/path/to/some/file
then the request to the server is GET /path/to/some/file
The CONNECT method for HTTP proxies establishes a tunnel to the
requested server:port. When the CONNECT method finished you are left
with a full duplex connection to the requested server, just as if you
had connected directly.
