Obsolete values don't matter; like the message said - it was simply
ignored.
Yeah.
The problem you ran into here is that 2.3.x had cn=include entries (which
were
also ignored in 2.3) but support for them was axed in 2.4. So, just delete
all
the cn=include* files from the config directory.
Will do and move on. Thanks. It will be worth noting some upgrades gotchas
for those running with slapd.d/
