Cannot install tomcat

I cannot install Tomcat:

Error while retrieving runtime from https://archive.apache.org/dist/tomcat/tomcat-9/v9.0.41/bin/apache-tomcat-9.0.41.zip: java.net.SocketException: Permission denied: connect

I think this is related to our corporate proxy/firewall. I run everything through fiddler but the request for tomcat never shows up there, unlike everything else. Looks to me all proxy settings (env HTTP_PROXY, various VScode settings) are being ignored by the Create new server command.

Hrmm...

Well, for now, as a workaround, you can download that url yourself and unzip it into a folder of your choice, and then try to create the server from a local directory instead of via downloading. This should allow you to continue using the tools.

I just downloaded it myself and configured the community server connector to use that installation.
