java.net.MalformedURLException: unknown protocol: cCause
The keystoreFile configuration in the connector is misconfigured. There are two possible causes:
A
/slash has been used instead of a\slashThe
keystoreFilepath is incorrect
Resolution
Depending on the cause from above, there are different solutions. Both involve changes to the server.xml located in <BITBUCKET_HOME>/shared:
Change all
/to\in the path forkeystoreFileCheck that the keystore path set in
keystoreFilepoints to the correct location
Bitbucket Server 5.0
As of Bitbucket Server 5.0, you can't configure any Tomcat connectors directly, therefore the configurations in this section only apply for Bitbucket server 4.14 or earlier.

The keystoreFile attribute has been replaced by ssl.key-store.
