RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Florence Blanc-Renaud 2021-06-17 06:27:06 UTC 
Cloned from upstream: https://pagure.io/freeipa/issue/8880

### Issue
In a CA less setup, if the CA certificate subject contains non-ASCII characters, ipa-server-install fails with a UnicodeDecodeError.

#### Steps to Reproduce
1. Create a CA with subject CN=CA,O=España
2. With this CA, create http and dirsrv certificates CN=server.ipa.test,O=España
3. install the server with ipa-server-install --http-cert-file .. --dirsrv-cert-file .. --ca-cert-file

#### Actual behavior
ipa-server-install fails when configuring SSL for HTTPd:
```
Configuring the web interface (httpd)
  [1/20]: stopping httpd
  [2/20]: backing up ssl.conf
  [3/20]: disabling nss.conf
  [4/20]: configuring mod_ssl certificate paths
  [5/20]: setting mod_ssl protocol list
  [6/20]: configuring mod_ssl log directory
  [7/20]: disabling mod_ssl OCSP
  [8/20]: adding URL rewriting rules
  [9/20]: configuring httpd
  [10/20]: setting up httpd keytab
  [11/20]: configuring Gssproxy
  [12/20]: setting up ssl
  [error] UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xd1 in position 67: invalid continuation byte
'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xd1 in position 67: invalid continuation byte
The ipa-server-install command failed. See /var/log/ipaserver-install.log for more information
```

#### Expected behavior
The installation should succeed
