[Spacewalk-list] Problems registering CentOS 5 Client on CentOS 5 Server

Hi,
I’ve tried to register a client on spacewalk following the instructions on https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/RegisteringClients.
The client runs on VMware, but I don’t think this is the reason.
Rhel-instnum is installed on the server.

Thx,
Oswald


Command on client

[root at client ~]# rhnreg_ks --force --serverUrl=http://server.siag.it/XMLRPC/ --activationkey=1-0fe1f330d475470eb049e9e17eeb344b
An error has occurred:
While running 'registration.welcome_message': caught
exceptions.KeyError : 'xmlrpc'

See /var/log/up2date for more information



Log on client
