If you've compiled Nagios with extended data in a database (as you
indicate above) then everything below is pointless. Nagios will look for
the extinfo definitions in the database, not hostextinfo.cfg.

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/1_0/xdata-db.html#config_extinfo

You'll need to create the appropriate tables and populate them with your
extinfo data.
