Hi
I have come across a problem with creating a kickstart.
I tried 2 different ways.
Method 1:
I ran the following command
spacewalk-repo-sync --channel centos6-x86_64 --sync-kickstart and this
seems to create a kickstart distribution.
I then create the kickstart profile using this distribution. I enter a
few basic details and when I click on create, I get a server 500 error
and the following WEB TRACEBACK
The following exception occurred while executing this request:

I then decided to create everything again.
I copied the required files for a pxeboot to a separate location.
Created the distibution and then the profile and elected to upload a
basic kickstart file instead.
Clicked ojn create and got the following webtrace back
