Enterprise Root CA Certificate Generation Issue

If you need to generate a certificate on an enterprise root CA, but get the error message that the CSR does not contain a template, this can be bypassed from the command line using the following syntax:

certreq -submit -attrib "CertificateTemplate: WebServer" WebServerCertReq.txt

This will force the server to use the certificate template for a server.
