Re: Can't create certificates (makecert)
As the error says:
"You cannot make a blank certificate"
I think you need to fill out some of those fields, at least the first 3-4 fields

Re: Can't create certificates (makecert)
Are you sure you are allowed to write into the given directory?
Example: You are a normal user, then you "cd /root", then issue the vpncmd command, you will receive an error.
Also of fun, could you please give the full file path, instead of just the file name when generating the certificate

Yes. vpnserver direcory is /srv/vpnserver and I use 777 rule for that directory (for test - attached proof)

I'm trying use vpnserver via SoftEther VPN Command Line Utility. Process started by root
----------------
root@betelgeuse:~# ps -axu | grep vpnserver
root 29534 0.0 0.0 12428 968 ? S<s февр.21 0:00 /srv/vpnserver/vpnserver execsvc
root 29535 0.2 2.0 571840 20964 ? S<l февр.21 2:42 /srv/vpnserver/vpnserver execsvc
root 31464 0.0 0.2 12996 2288 pts/0 S+ 10:14 0:00 grep --color=auto vpnserver

Re: Can't create certificates (makecert)
Could you please try this command on another machine? local or remote. I suspect this has to do with file permission.
Out curiosity, could you also keep an eye on server\_log directory while doing this (I'm not sure whether anything is written, but still)
