Yes, Upgrade is going on, but need immediate assistance. How to fix it ?
Maybe take a look (by hand) through your slapcat(8) backups to find the most recent known good (perhaps excepting contextCSN) backup. Then delete your corrupt database, and slapadd(8) the known good backup using the -w option. It's all a bit of a parlor trick if your environment is running into a known issue, though, which is the most likely scenario here.

Somebody else has probably already contributed the hard work in the past eight years. So upgrade to the latest version of OpenLDAP from www.openldap.org, and then any write to the database should write a fresh contextCSN...
