Most likely the proxy server blocks the conversation between your client app and the database. Depending on the database (SQL Server, Oracle, MySql etc) and it's configuration, you should allow traffic through proper port.

If you have a separate proxy between the application and the database, you cannot modify it with locally. If it's a local proxy, then perhaps this would help http://support.microsoft.com/kb/819961[^]. Also have a look at Change Internet Proxy settings[^]
