loglevel and logfile

hi,

I am trying to turn on debugging for slapd and direct the debug output to a specific file on OpenLDAP 2.4.11 on linux without using syslog.

I tried using slapd.conf; configured logfile and loglevel. And the only way I could get it working is by passing in the -d option to slapd. It does not seem to use the loglevel/logfile values if I don't pass in the -d option.

I also tried using slapd.d. I am able to set olcLogLevel but I can't set olcLogFile. It won't even let me add it to the config.

Ideas? Thanks much.
