can someone say, why the Extension "X509v3 Issuer Alternative Name" is
empty in my User-Certificates ?
In the User.ext Configuration File there is a Line:

issuerAltName=issuer:copy
issuerAltName copies the subject alternative name of the CA-cert into the extension but several CAs have no subject alternative name. OpenCA uses during the generation of the CA-cert "subjectAltName = email:copy" but if there is no emailaddress in the DN then this option fails.

The solution is that you must set the subjectAltName of the CA by hand in OPENCADIR/etc/openssl/openssl.cnf before you issue the CA-cert.
