bsdinstall fails

After playing around with scripting bsdinstall I now tried to manually create a jail with bsdintall.

Code: 
% sudo zfs create zroot/var/jails/_base
% sudo bsdinstall jail /var/jails/_base/

I then can select a mirror and I've tried several of them, but they all return the error message:
Error while fetching base.txz: Invalid URL scheme.

What's going on? How can I fix this?
 
Yes, I can. Both the network and DNS work.
Code:

mkdir 12.1-R
cd 12.1-R

here's my script for installing FreeBSD (no matter for jail template or for new system):
Code: 
#!/bin/csh

set mount = "/usr/j/template"
#set disk = da0

set arch = "amd64"

if ($arch == "i386") then
    setenv DISTRIBUTIONS "base.txz kernel.txz"
endif

if ($arch == "amd64") then
    setenv DISTRIBUTIONS "base.txz kernel.txz lib32.txz"
endif

setenv BSDINSTALL_DISTDIR /usr/j
setenv BSDINSTALL_DISTSITE ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/$arch/11.2-RELEASE
setenv BSDINSTALL_CHROOT $mount

if ($?disk) then
    echo "making all on $disk"
    echo "proceed? (type 'yes' to proceed)"
    set ans = $<
    if ($ans == yes ) then
        echo "gparting $disk"
        gpart create -s gpt $disk
        gpart add -t freebsd-boot -a4k -s512k $disk
        gpart bootcode -b /boot/pmbr -p /boot/gptboot -i 1 da0
        gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -a4k -s10G -l rootfs $disk
        gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -a4k -s50G -l varfs $disk
        gpart add -t freebsd-ufs -a4k -l usrfs $disk
        newfs -L rootfs /dev/gpt/rootfs
        newfs -L varfs /dev/gpt/varfs
        newfs -L usrfs /dev/gpt/usrfs

        mount /dev/gpt/rootfs $mount
        mkdir $mount/etc $mount/usr $mount/var
        mount /dev/gpt/varfs $mount/var
        mount /dev/gpt/usrfs $mount/usr

        echo "/dev/gpt/rootfs     /       ufs     rw              1       1" >> $mount/etc/fstab
        echo "/dev/gpt/varfs     /var       ufs     rw              1       1" >> $mount/etc/fstab
        echo "/dev/gpt/usrfs     /usr       ufs     rw              1       1" >> $mount/etc/fstab
    endif
endif
