Hi Klaus,
thx for your reply.
I checked ownership and permissions on /var/lib/ldap: francesco@bob:/var/lib$ ls -l | grep ldap drwxr-xr-x 5 openldap openldap 4096 2009-06-15 17:03 ldap
while the two subdirs I'm trying to place bdb data files and logs have: francesco@bob:/var/lib$ ls -l ldap [...] drwxr-xr-x 2 openldap openldap 4096 2009-06-14 18:39 bdbdata drwxr-xr-x 2 openldap openldap 4096 2009-06-14 18:39 bdblogs [...]
During test, I also tried to change permissions on bdbdata and bdblogs to 775 and even 777: but I had no success in getting bdb log.0000000001 accessible when placed in bdblogs.
I'm running short of ideas... I'm even wondering if someone else had similar problems when trying to set different dir for data files and logs...
see you fra

Hi Francesco,
likely the files in /var/lib/ldap/ have the wrong owner (root?).
chown -R openldap:openldap /var/lib/ldap should solve Your problem.
Greetings Klaus
