Could you try running rhn-profile-sync -vvv to get more output and post that back to the list?

Hi
I am using the following versions on the client machine:
rhn-profile-sync (Red Hat Network Client Tools) 0.4.17-8.el5

rhn packages
~~~~~~~~~~~~
rhnlib-2.2.5-1.el5
yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.3-6.6
rhn-check-0.4.17-8.el5
rhnsd-4.6.1-1.el5
rhn-setup-0.4.17-8.el5
rhn-client-tools-0.4.17-8.el5

which are running on Centos5 2.6.18-92.el5xen #1 SMP Tue Jun 10 19:20:18
EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

The dates are synced properly. Running rhn-profile-sync gives the
following error:
Updating package profile...
Updating hardware profile...
Error reading hardware information: dbus_bindings.DBusException
Error reading dmi info : dbus_bindings.DBusException

So it appears to be working for package profile but not for the hardware
profile. It does not however update the package profile on the spacewalk
server.
How do I check if there is an incompatibility between the base channel
of the activation key used for registration and the system I am trying
to update?

Regards

What version of client are you registering to spacewalk server? if RHEL/CentOS-5 you can run 'rhn-profile-sync' and update your package profile info on the server. Also make sure rhnsd is running and date is synced correctly. Yes osad is an option if you want your actions to be picked up immediately. Else rhnsd should do that automatically in regular intervals.

Thanks,
