Hi @stefanfreitag ,

Thank you for reporting this. We reproduced the issue. A fix is scheduled for the next CLI release. Until then, you can avoid the failure by configuring the CLI (jf config add) or by passing connection details on the command line (--url, --access-token, and where applicable --repo).
