How about you check the permissions on  /etc/opiekeys and ensure that the
process requiring WRITE access is given that right?

On my system (FreeBSD 13) I see:

root at gw:/usr/home/wash # ls -al /etc/opiekeys
-rw-------  1 root  wheel  0 Jan 10  2019 /etc/opiekeys

Meaning that the file is only WRITEable by root.

Check that the process gets access, or maybe assign that process another
file? I don't know if that works. I don't use OpenLDAP.
You need to read /usr/ports/UPDATING for clues, or the relevant man page
for the details of what you should do.
