This is strange, as the sampleconfig script (which we definitely not recommend 
to use for production setups) creates a CA with 2 years validity.

Anyway. The easiest way is to reduce the validity of the issued certificates to 
e. g. 6 months so it fits in the remaining CA validity.

Edit config.d/realm.tpl/profile/default.yaml and change 

validity:
    notafter: +01

to something shorter, e. g.

validity:
    notafter: +0006

Restart the server and retry (and note that this will only buy you another 6 
months...)

Cheers

Martin
