You should be requesting the Web Server certificate
either from te IIS Certificate request wizard or from
the Web pages. The reason that you are failing is that
the request is for the machine, not for the current
user.
Also, it is recommended, if you are using IIS, to use
the default Web Server template, as the wizard is hard
coded to request that template, rather than a custom
template.
To request from the Web portal, Perform a request where
you paste a PKCS#10 CSR into the request. You can then
choose the WEb server template, and store the
certificate in the local machine store
