Invalid signature on CSR?

Hi, i try to get SAN requests running but on the final step when requesting the certificate i am stuck.
Can someone help me where the error in this request is?

Response: {“type”:“urn:acme:error:unauthorized”,“detail”:“Error creating new cert :: Invalid signature on CSR”}

Your CSR is indeed invalid - it contains a RSA-2048 public key and the RSA signature length is 512 bytes (it should be 256 bytes).

Most likely you used the wrong private key to sign the CSR, and it was a RSA-4096 private key.

Here is the output of “openssl req -text -verify”:
