You're not specifying a complete <error/> tag, and in the second example, 
your <error/> tag is within the <query/> tag, where it doesn't belong.
Based on what you're trying to send (above), this is what it should look
like:

<iq id='A6' to='baloney at localhost/Gabber' from='jud.localhost'
    type='error'>
  <query xmlns='jabber:iq:register'>
    (your query stuff here)
  </query>
  <error code='NNN'>XXXXXX</error>
</iq>

where NNN is a numeric code and XXXXXXX is the error text. See the JPG
for a list of standard codes (or the server source, in jabberd/lib/lib.h
off the top of my head).
