Register fails with "unexpected message"

Latest response

I try to register a RHEL 7.3 VM. What I've done:

subscription-manager remove --all
subscription-manager unregister
subscription-manager clean
yum clean all
rm -rf /var/cache/yum/*
subscription-manager register

The file /var/log/rhsm/rhsm.log shows:

What's wrong, what should I do?
