Actually to start with, try using the correct db_recover binary while in the data directory. If that fails, then remove the alock file and see if slapd will start. Sadly not uncommon for alock to report problems incorrectly.
But agree, best thing to do after those steps is move to back-mdb on a current release.

Thanks. Here are the results. I can start googling this result, but I am kind of a newbie at openldap, so if you know something obvious, let me know. Thank you very much.

The database seems corrupted.
You can try to slapcat to get a backup of the data (or try service slapd backup). Then remove all files and reimport data with slapadd (or try service slapd restore).
You should then try to upgrade to 2.4.44 and use LMDB backend.
