That should be harmless...

Let me reexamine your original mail:

[...]

That's the problem, I think.

With this statement you generate a self signed certificate from server.req
(check with "openssl x509 -in server.crt -text -noout").

What you need is a certificate signed by root.crt.

You can do it like this:

openssl x509 -req -in server.req -CA root.crt -CAkey our.key -CAcreateserial -out server.crt

See if that gets rid of the message!
