+I'm seeing the same issue on OSX when adding a \"Remote server\", using git-annex version 6.20180807. This is on a completely new repository that I've created in \"~/annex\", with no files in it.
+
+After clicking \"Combine repositories\", I get the following error:
+
+    Internal Server Error
+    there is no available git remote named \"mydomain.example.com_annex\"
+
+Where mydomain.example.com is the address to my ssh server.
+
+The logs say:
+
+    [2018-10-01 14:39:44.352157] main: starting assistant version 6.20180807
+    [2018-10-01 14:39:44.416265] Cronner: You should enable consistency checking to protect your data. 
+    (scanning...) [2018-10-01 14:39:44.670591] Watcher: Performing startup scan
+    (started...) 
+    01/Oct/2018:14:40:13 +0200 [Error#yesod-core] there is no available git remote named \"mydomain.example.com_annex\" @(yesod-core-1.4.37.3-2QxllzSqvdqJbUCjADwK0K:Yesod.Core.Class.Yesod ./Yesod/Core/Class/Yesod.hs:693:5)
+
+It does not matter if the remote repository has been created or not - I still see the same error. Also, my local \"~/annex\" git repository has a remote named \"mydomain.example.com_annex\":
+
+    # git remote show mydomain.example.com_annex 
+    mesg: ttyname failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device

+      HEAD branch: (unknown)
+      Remote branch:
+        git-annex new (next fetch will store in remotes/mydomain.example.com_annex)
+      Local ref configured for 'git push':
+        git-annex pushes to git-annex (local out of date)
