I'm also stuck at pushpool configuration. I read through the whole thread and the only solution to get rid of the error messages when connecting a miner is to have the rpc port (pushpool) pointing to the rpcport configured in bitcoin.conf.
However when i connect my miner I get error 500.

some lines are cut by "$" because i copied/paste it from a text editor, but those shouldn't be interesting...
bitcoind runs as normal user, and I'm able to connect my miner directly to bitcoind (using rpcuser and rpcpass).
pushpool and bitcoind run on the same machine.
some more debug output:

any help is appreciated :-/
