      Yesterday I upgraded our SG-4200 from 26.03 to 26.03.1 and I can no longer sign CSRs. I get the following error:

      WARNING: write_config() was called without description @ 2026-06-09 15:11:24

        @matsan can we get some more details.. I just tried duplicating this - created a csr on my nas.. And then signed it without any issues.

          Thank you for your response.
          Strange, but now I was able to sign the same CSR (from Unifi Network application). Setting Server and 200 days...

            Like you had to set different cert parameters to allow the CSR to succeed? Or it just worked after retrying?

              @stephenw10 valid and relevant question. I may have gotten the CSR differently (it2copy versus selecting in iTerm)... I just don't know. Sorry.

                It seems like for that to happen there would need to have been some error signing the CSR. I've improved the error handling around that which should also avoid the warning.
