The explanation is really easy. If you issue a certificate for a normal user then OpenCA can normally extracts an emailaddress from the subject of the request. This emailaddress is used to build a correct subject alternative name (AUTOMATIC_SUBJECT_ALT_NAME "Y"). If you create a request for a server then you put perhaps no emailaddress into the subject of the request. In addition you should set the subject alternative name for a webserver by hand because it is recommended by RFCs that the DNS-name is set in the subject alternative name. This topic is discussed in the OpenCA-guid too.
