[Spacewalk-list] Kickstart related error -- need help debugging

[Boyd, Robert]

I'm getting emails sent to root on my spacewalk 1.7 server.   It looks like there's something going on with kickstarts, even though I'm not really using kickstart explicitly currently.  There's a lot of output - where should I send this kind of error output to have someone look through it for clues?

Here is the first part of one of these messages:

I'm not sure why anything is looking for something under kickstart at all ... if someone is willing to look at it, I can send the rest of the error output.
