In my init.ldif, I do have line 52, my last line is 51

This is the content of my init.ldif file

The error you see represents the expected behavior, since your LDIF file is invalid; please check your syntax.

As there appears to be no OpenLDAP software bug, this ITS will be closed. Please direct further discussion to OpenLDAP-software.
