Are you running as a user other than root? I'd guess that some files in
the database area are owned by root, causing slapd not to be able to open
the files like the error message states.
So it was.
It seems that I have to check the FreeBSD's slapd-startup script.
Although I haven't specified any specific user for running slapd, but
took the default user "DEFAULT". Hiowever, a user "ldap" is used at
boot-time. By executing the script from commandline, slapd runs as "root".
But IIRC I've never propagated any user called "ldap". Hmm, strange.
BTW.: Is there any explanation why starting slapd as "ldap" takes much
more time, than starting it as "root"?
