openssl

I have problem in running the command below using openssl-0.9.8e and apache in Ubuntu 11.10. do you have any idea to resolve it? first i was receiving this error:

No such file or directory:bss_file.c:169:fopen('openssl.cnf','rb')

then i copied my modified openssl.cnf file in the /etc/ssl/ directory. now i receive an error regarding -in option:

openssl ca -days 3650 –in server/requests/ciise.concordia.ca.csr –cert ./CA/ConcordiaCA.crt –keyfile ./CA/ConcordiaCA.key –out ./server/certificates/ciise.concordia.ca.crt -config openssl.cnf
unknown option –in

I also copied ciise.concordia.ca.csr in the upper directory, but the problem still persists I would appreciate any help:)
