Your attr_map seems a little broken, although that shouldn't affect user 
creation. The cause of the problem seems related to this line:

[Sat Apr 19 22:19:46 2008] [info]: Autocreated authenticated user
carlos.velez99 (  )

The empty parenthesis at the end of this line is supposed to contain the 
principal ID for the newly created user, which means that user creation 
didn't succeed.

It's not clear what would cause that.

Perhaps if you provided your RT_SiteConfig.pm we might be better able to 
work out what's going on..
