Finally I found the solution     It s very easy  Go to the LAN settings  In Chrome   Tools - gt  Options - gt  Under the hood - gt  Change Proxy setting - gt  LAN Setting   There will be a checkbox for  quot Bypass proxy server for local address quot   Tick the checkbox    Done  On Mac Apple  Chrome uses system preferences for localhost exclusion   Go to System Preferences - gt  Network - gt  advanced - gt  Proxy settings  Add  localhost  at the bottom where it says   ignore proxy settings for these hosts and domains   Exceptions are separated by a comma

I found that when I had this issue that I had to delete the application config file from my solution  I was pulling the code from co-worker s repository whose config file was mapping to their local computer resources  and not my own   In addition to that  I had to create a new virtual directory as explained in the previous answers
