Andrea,

You have to add the lines

   x509_extensions         = <name_of_section>
and
   [<name_of_section>]

to your config file.
If you want to get an x.509v3 certificate without extensions, you can leave
the section empty. Otherwise you can specify your extensions to be used
here.

Regards

Thomas
