I installed all OpenSCAP packages on RHEL 9.2 VM and then remotely evaluated & remediated the CIS level 1 Server profile benchmarks without any issues. The issue only occurs when I try to use a custom profile that I created using the autotailor command. Below is the error I ran into.
The reason for customizing the profile is there are some benchmarks that we need to exclude from the default Level 1 Server profile.
All commands I am using are from the OpenSCAP user manual (https://static.open-scap.org/openscap-1.3/oscap_user_manual.html#_creating_tailoring_files)
