After some chatter on the mailing list, the problem is now understood:
- TLS error messages are indeed reported by OpenLDAP: TLS: could not use key file `/usr/local/etc/openldap/certs/ldap.key.pem'.

with '-d stats'

My suggestions: print the TLS error messages out to syslog, or if that's not possible, print them to stdout regardless of whether the daemon is running in the foreground or not.
Isn't it in local4.* ?
No, they do not get sent to local4.* - the only TLS message which makes it there in this scenario is: slapd[72041]: main: TLS init def ctx failed: -1
Like I said, the ONLY way to get the actual TLS error messages is to run the daemon by hand in the foreground with loglevel stats by way of 'slapd -d stats'. Per the manpage this also prevents slapd from forking: -d debug-level Turn on debugging as defined by debug-level. If this option is specified, even with a zero argument, slapd will not fork or disassociate from the invoking terminal.
Let me know if I'm still not being clear.
If you are trying to debug an issue, you most certainly should be running slapd -d <level>... that's why it exists.

That's a valid point. However, it does not explain why the TLS errors aren't (or "shouldn't be") logged via syslog.
