In Python, indentation levels are significant:

Use 4 spaces per indentation level.

--PEP 8 -- Style Guide for Python Code

Your code should probably look like this:

protocol = input.readLine()
connectUrlHttp = 'http'
connectUrlHttps = 'https'

if protocol == "t3s":
    connectUrl = connectUrlHttps
elif protocol == "iiops":
    connectUrl = connectUrlHttps
else:
    connectUrl = connectUrlHttp

# Note the `+` after `connectUrl` on the next line:
sca_deployComposite(connectUrl + "://" + host + ":" + port, emdroot + "/" +
                    compositeLoc, owrite, user, password, default)

The actual syntax error is here:

sca_deployComposite(connectUrl"://"+host+":"+port,emdroot+"/"+compositeLoc,owrite,user, password,default)
                            ^^^

You probably missed a + there.

The indentation is also wrong after the else, as Ashwini points out.

Your code is not properly indented after else:

if protocol== "t3s":
 connectUrl=connectUrlHttps
elif protocol== "iiops":
  connectUrl=connectUrlHttps
else:
    connectUrl=connectUrlHttp

sca_deployComposite(connectUrl+"://"+host+":"+port,emdroot+"/"+compositeLoc,owrite,user, password,default)

Plus you were missing a + after sca_deployComposite(connectUrl.
