One thing that I ran into which may or may not be an issue for you.
Make sure you go to the following page:
https://<spacewalk-server>/rhn/activationkeys/List.do
and cut and paste the key from there. Looks like the key should be about 35
characters long (at least on my system it is).
When I went to the edit key page, the "Key:" field does not show the
complete key (truncates it in the GUI).
So when I first tried to register systems, I cut & pasted it from the GUI
(edit key page) and I didn't have the complete key.
Just thought I would mention that.

Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] Still having problems registering a client
My latest attempt:
I reinstalled all the rpm's on the client.
I edited the repos in /etc/yum.repos.d (I'll fix them later on the
server).
I imported all the GPG keys.
On the client, I deleted the system. I also added the server hostname to
/etc/hosts, so I can reference by name. I also telneted from the client to
the jabberd port with no problems. Neither box is running IPTABLES (well,
they are, but accept is the policy).
I've tried starting osad on the client, but it just complains that it
can't connect to the jabber server, and even -vvv -N tells me utterly
nothing useful.
So I thought, maybe it's that I haven't registered yet. So again, I tried
rhnreg_ks. Again, I got exactly the same error on the client (internal
server error). On the server:
/var/log/rhn/rhn_server_xmlrpc.log:
2009/02/26 14:12:00 -05:00 27546 <IP address of client>:
xmlrpc/registration.welcome_message('lang: None',)

'x86_64-redhat-linux')
2009/02/26 14:12:00 -05:00 27547 <IP address of client>:

2009/02/26 14:12:00 -05:00 27547 <IP address of client>:
rhnServer/server_token.token_channels('ERROR', 'Server has invalid release

'usage_limit': None, 'user_id': 1, 'org_id': 1, 'server_id': None,
'token_desc': 'Spacewalk Management Entitled Servers', 'token_type':
'enterprise_entitled', 'token': '<valid activation key>', 'token_id': 1,
'deploy_configs': 'N', 'kickstart_session_id': None, 'is_base': 'Y'}])
2009/02/26 14:12:00 -05:00 27543 <IP address of client>:

2009/02/26 14:12:01 -05:00 27548 <IP address of client>:
xmlrpc/registration.add_packages(1000010005, 'packages: 425')
2009/02/26 14:12:10 -05:00 27846 <IP address of client>:
Above repeated four times.
The email traceback shows me only a lot of verbiage that comes down to
"not connected to Oracle", and I get one for each failed try (that's five
of 'em).
I also don't understand why "token contains no base channels", when I've
give the activation key I created for a base channel.
Does *anyone* have a clue as to why I am unable to fully register my test
system? After it fails, it shows up in the browser, but kernel is unknown,
and there's no packages - obviously, after it couldn't add the 425 of
them.
Clues for the poor?
