Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu
better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears
to be a regular (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security
issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to
cross
This is a security problem because it stop an package which has security
problems from being updated.
Package: slapd (2.4.15-1ubuntu3.1) [security]
from package changelog:
openldap (2.4.15-1ubuntu3.1) jaunty-security; urgency=low
* SECURITY UPDATE: null ptr deref, free uninitialized data in
I wonder if the cause of this chown error is at all related to the one
discussed in bug #450645
If you can post the output of the following commands it might provide
enough information to figure out what exactly is triggering the bug:

ba...@work-isp:~$ sudo sh -c ls -l /etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase*
ls: cannot access /etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase*: No such file or
directory
ba...@work-isp:~$ sudo sh -c grep olcSuffix:
/etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase*
grep: /etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDatabase*:
Ah, okay, you are still using the slapd.conf file, rather than the
slapd.d configuration directory, so your error and the one in #450645
are more like cousins than siblings :)

changing suffix dc=domain to suffix dc=domain fixed the problem.
Not sure why nothing in ldap/slapd thinks this is a problem but thing look
to be working.

It occured to me that when the postinst script is unable to determine
the database directory associated with a particular suffix (for whatever
reason), simply producing the error message chown: invalid argument:

Here's a patch
