Hello Dmitrij,

As Michael said, I used to have this problem before,
so the good news for me is that some of our requests
come in pkcs#10 format, PEM base64 encoded requests,
so the temporary solution we have is when we create
those requests using OpenSSL, we use the option      
-utf8, then we insert them in OpenCA using the "Server
Request" and we process them as usual. If you see one
of the genereated certificates using "openssl
asn1parse" you can see the specific characters of your
language (at least with spanish works) as they must.

Hope this can help you.

Johnny.
