ODATA error in SAPUI5

hi Experts,

I am new to SAPUI5 and trying to build a simple application that can consume a OData WS.

In the JS view, i am creating a ODataModel as

var oModel = new sap.ui.model.odata.ODataModel(

  "proxy/http://services.odata.org/Northwind/Northwind.svc");

This opens a Table in with No Data..

the logs shows below error

1. GET http://localhost:8080/SITMIL/proxy/http://services.odata.org/Northwind/Northwind.svc/$metadata 500 (Internal Server Error) datajs.js:17

I have seen many posts here which talks about "proxy/" prefix change. But removing the proxy prefix throws 501 error.

I have also tried to use the other SAP GW WS - https://sapes1.sapdevcenter.com/sap/opu/odata/IWFND/RMTSAMPLEFLIGHT; which also gave same error.

Please help to fix this error.

thanks,

Sujay
