Description of problem: Hi, I cannot upload certain configuration files to a configuration channel. This is the error I get: rhncfg-manager add --channel=common-cfg --server-name=spacewalk.unix.banksys.be /opt/test Using server name spacewalk.unix.banksys.be Pushing to channel common-cfg: XML-RPC error while talking to https://spacewalk.unix.banksys.be/CONFIG-MANAGEMENT-TOOL: cannot marshal None unless allow_none is enabled For some other files it is OK: rhncfg-manager add --channel=common-cfg --server-name=spacewalk.unix.banksys.be /etc/resolv.conf Using server name spacewalk.unix.banksys.be Pushing to channel common-cfg: Local file /etc/resolv.conf -> remote file /etc/resolv.conf It seems very random, I can not see a common denominator for the files that trigger the error. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhel 5.4 rhncfg-management-5.9.14-1.el5 spacewalk-oracle-0.7.4-1.el5
