I have just installed update manager 5.1
I am trying to get the download settings working and download patch definitions
in the download settings section, the download source for virtual appliances shows as not connected
when I try and download, my status gets to 50% and then fails with error
Cannot download patch definitions.
the problem is this
http://vapp-updates.vmware.com/vai-catalog/index.html is not a valid virtual appliance download URL
anyone know how to resolve?
the status for the hostupdate esx components says connected
Well if you don't need that, you could always uncheck that particular url in the update manager configuration page (download settings)
Also there is a test connection button in that page, do you get any error on clicking that?

I want the app updates but, I have replication installed and would like to keep it up to date
when I test the connection I get the following
The following URLs could not be accessed:
The following URLs have been successfully accessed:
the server has internet access and can access both sites through the browser fine?
Do you have a proxy and have it configured in the Update manager?

Yes and yes
Only other thing that comes to mind is firewall... are the required ports for VUM open?

Firewall is turned off..
maybe error in URL? try to change "index.html" -> "index.xml".
