0. What's really going on here? slapadd, like most OpenLDAP Software, supports "-d" debugging option. It looks like this is erroring out so quickly that I'd just go for "-d -1" and see what happens. You'll probably get a better clue with this output...

1. The crystal ball (blindly) says the "better clue" is going to be something along the lines of "entry exists" -- is your output directory /etc/openldap/slapd.d empty at the time of running slapadd?
