[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk - building first kickstart

Mon May 21 22:43:36 UTC 2012

Hi,
Using:
http://honglus.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html

Using postgresql

I successfully
Created a kickstart tree with
    mkdir -p /var/distro-trees/centos-6.2x86_64
    cd /media; find . ! -path "./CentOS/*"   | cpio -pvd /var/distro-trees/centos-6.2x86_64      for each of two disks

Created a distribution with the tree path /var/distro-trees/centos-6.2x86_64

Now I'm trying to create the first kickstart using the default download location.
The gui is giving me the error:
Internal Server Error
The server experienced a problem which prevented your request from being filled out. It may not be possible to execute this action at this time.
Please help us correct this problem by contacting us with details of how you received this message.

I also get the web traceback:
