I have had issues with openldap do this sort of thing in the past..

Make sure the DB is healthy by running db_recover-X.Y -h /var/db/openldap

Make a backup first of course..

I also had an issue where it would run fine if I called it manually but not 
from the rc script.. It was _very_ frustrating and I never got to the bottom 
of it properly.
