Hi team,

Today, I ran into issue trying to register RHEL 5.2 system with my 
spacewalk instance.

Here is the command and output.

[root at ix ~]#rhnreg_ks -v --username XXXXXXX --password XXXXXX 
--serverUrl=http://patching.firstserv.com/XMLRPC 
--activationkey=1-7f8e11a50ad4fc8ab229428520338f6e --nohardware --novirtinfo
An error has occurred:
While running 'registration.welcome_message': caught
exceptions.KeyError : 'xmlrpc'

See /var/log/up2date for more information


I think Handler Exception information will be helpful also

I followed wiki instructions and thought it would be easy. Could you 
tell me what's wrong?

P.S. Merry Christmas Team!
