ElasticSeach SSL Signed overrun error

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Searching around I have not seen anyone run into this error.

I am using Elasticsearch 7.16.2 with a Windows CA, I request a CSR and then sign it with the Windows web enrolment under the web server setting, the following error follows:

Any help would be appreciated
