Hi List

First of all I am complete newbie when it comes to Spacewalk so applogies
for any stupid question in advance :)

I am trying to install Spacewalk on one of my servers to see if I can use it
to manage my other servers and also the users and groups on the Directory
server, btw is this possible to manage users and groups in Spacewalk that is
sitting on a Directory Server and also it is the same as IPA?

Now for my tech problem, when I am trying to login through my web browser I
am not able to see anything just a blank screen, in /var/log/messages I see
several of these messages:
2009-02-23 20:04:00,025 - api - login attempt; user(taskomatic_user)
2009-02-23 20:04:01,139 - api - Exception occured: xmlrpclib.ProtocolError
2009-02-23 20:04:01,140 - api - Exception value: <ProtocolError for
ldap.norhex.com/rpc/api: 500 Internal Server Error>

    headers

I am trying to build this on a Centos 5.2 machine from this howto
http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/PackageManagement/Spacewalk#head-e04eadc5ed664
bd79068564af7d84662c3081b22

Does anyone have any idea of where I am going wrong?

Kind regards
