When trying to renew or create certificate from Local active directory You get error The request contains no certificate template information 0x80094801

 

When trying to renew or create certificate from Local active directory certificate authority you get error like:

The request contains no certificate template information 0x80094801

This happens because the certificate request is not containing any template for the authority to  issue too ! You need to “help” the authority and state what your certificate is about and you can explicitly specify template name when submitting the request:

certreq -submit -attrib "CertificateTemplate:WebServer" path\requestfilename.req

The certificate Authority knows then how to issue .
