Hi Nathanael,

This error means that the restAPI request to foreman returned an error.
Most of the time it is a communication issue.. but we can't know much from
this report.
Can you please share the production.log file from your foreman host?
Better to try to add the server as provider, get the error and then check
the production.log file - it will show us if engine request got to foreman
server, the internal fields and why foreman returned 5050.

Greeting,
Yaniv Bronhaim.
