Hi Quanah;
Thanks for your reply.
But the problem is that when I use slapindex -q I get the errors explained 
in ITS 4228.
Best Regards
Ali

Hi Ali,

The recommended version of BDB to use with OL is still 4.2.52 + patches, 
which is likely why the DB_CONFIG file shipped with OpenLDAP has the BDB 
4.2 syntax in it.  However, for fast operations (slapadd or slapindex) in 
2.3, you can ignore these parameters altogether with BDB 4.2 or BDB 4.3, 
and simply use the "-q" flag to the tools instead.  The lines you 
reference 
should really be pulled from the 2.3 version of DB_CONFIG altogether, and 
likely replaced with "# Use -q for fast operations while running slapadd 
or 
slapindex" or something similar.
