Hi Thomas,
Could you share the relevant piece of the code and perhaps the raw CSR data it generates?
From what you write, it looks like you have called `mbedtls_x509write_csr_set_extension()` with
OID `MBEDTLS_OID_SERVER_AUTH`, which isn't quite right: `mbedtls_x509write_csr_set_extension()` registers a single extension, and the TLS Web Server Authentication usage is one usage constraint within the ExtendedKeyUsage extension. I'd therefore expect that you have to call `mbedtls_x509write_csr_set_extension()` with `MBEDTLS_OID_EXTENDED_KEY_USAGE` passing it the raw ASN.1 content of the ExtendedKeyUsage extension, part of which is `MBEDTLS_OID_SERVER_AUTH`. To my knowledge, there is currently no API within Mbed TLS which helps you writing this ASN.1 content from a list of usage constraints, so you will need to build it manually. If you have trouble with that, let us know. Alternatively, you might copy it from any certificate you know which has the desired ExtendedKeyUsage.
Apologies for this inconvenience, I do think it would be beneficial to have some helper function for writing such an important extension as ExtendedKeyUsage which doens't force users to hand-craft ASN.1.

Hello,
I have a problem generating the following content in an certificate request :
Requested Extensions:
X509v3 Extended Key Usage:
TLS Web Server Authentication
X509v3 Basic Constraints:
CA:FALSE
The only thing I could produce was :
Requested Extensions:
X509v3 Key Usage:
Digital Signature
X509v3 Extended Key Usage:
TLS Web Server Authentication:
Can anybody help me with the function :
mbedtls_x509write_csr_set_extension
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Thomas Volgmann
