• when i use the complete value of the attribute such as uid=e497004 no result is returned, but there is an entry with that value.

stop slapd, run sbin/slapindex, restart slapd, and tell us if that helped.

Needed if you add the index to slapd.conf when you alreayd have a database, since just editing slapd.conf does not index existing data.

• when i use some regular expressions the result is correclty such as uid=e* the corresponding entry is correctly returned.

Substring, not a regular expression.

By default, a substring search with just a single letter does not use indexes, it just trawls through each entry in scope.
