October 15th, 2013
Having a Windows Server 2012 with the certification authority role (ADCS) installed where the CA name contains space characters. When a certificate is issued from this CA, the ADCS service does not replace the space characters with “%20” in the URL paths for certificate revocation list (CRL) distribution points and authority information access extensions. This results in errors when clients accesses the URL’s.
