You need to add/change the "default_md" for the "req" section. You are
probably changing the value in "CA_default" section and thats why its not
reflecting in your certificate. Heres what needs to be done in openssl.cnf
file.
[ req ]
default_md = sha1

Hello,
I want to generate a self signed certificate that uses 'sha1RSA' as signature
algorithm.
I tried changing the default signature algorithm in OpenSSL config file
(default_md), but there is no effect of the change on the certificate. The
certificate shows 'md5RSA' as the signature algorit
