When running the cucumber command directly it will implicitly require 
the sibling and ancestor ruby files  of the feature. So as you suggested 
it will not auto load your env.rb or you step_definitions folder.

You can have whatever folder structure you want. If you look at the 
default layout generated by cucumber it uses a similar structure to what 
you have now (support / step_definitions).

If you want to use the tool directly you could do:

cucumber --require features/support/ --require 
features/step_definitions/  --language es 
features/administracion/alta_centros.feature
