Hey, probably the file or the directory will be dynamically created at post-install by a debconf script.
Try "dpkg-reconfigure slapd" if there is such a script, that should trigger it.
In normal cases that should also trigger when installing the slapd-package, but who knows what's blocking it.
Bye.
PS: You better should ask that kind of question on a debian mailinglist, most of us are only guessing. :P

You must be using a slapd located elsewhere.
How did you start slapd? Check the script for slapd's location, and grep that file.
Probably something like: /usr/local/...

Hi Dear Team!
Please, I got problem with my OpenLDAP server on Debian Testing. I try to purge slapd package with aptitude purge slapd and remove all files and directories with rm on /etc/ldap/.
after reinstall slapd, I can't see the main configuration file /etc/ldap/slapd.conf?
but the server is running.
Look into files like /etc/default/slapd and /etc/init.d/slapd, what path they set for the SLAPD_CONF variable and through it, the "-f" parameter. This should point to an existing file.
If the -f parameter is not present, try finding the files slapd searches for the default configuration: strings /usr/sbin/slapd | grep "slapd."
