Doing the generateURLmapping part for a server rename nets me: CRJAZ1356E The repotools command could not connect to the following server: 'https://localhost:9443/jts'. First, we use :9445 at our installation, second we have this machine's IP connected to localhost in the hosts file. Thoughts? |

I would consider to provide the repotools command the basic parameters it always needs: rpoURL, user, password so that it can initially connect to the repository. If you don't it tries to use default values that most likely not match your environment and comes up with that question. If you don't provide parameters at all, you can pipe the help output into a file to help you digesting it.

Comments adding the repository command worked. It was not listed in the documentation for mapping a URL

Was the JTS stopped when you ran the command? That is another cause.

Changing localhost to another IP than loopback IP address 127.0.0.1 can have subtle side effects.
See the wikipedia localhost description where you can find that the name localhost is reserved for loopback purposes by RFC 6761 (Special-Use Domain Names).
thanks,
I removed it, uncommented 127, tried ::1, same error for all 3.
