I suggest you upgrade to OPENLDAP_RELEASE (currently 1.2.6)
or OPENLDAP_STABLE (currently 1.2.6). Both of these are
floating revision tags. That is, they are updated upon
new issue of "release" and "stable" versions, respectively.

Likely a case of garbage in/garbage out.

If you ever used ldif2ldbm add new entries (as opposed
to restoring a database), you like have malformed entries in
your directory (ldif2ldbm does no schema or naming checks).
>Is this any known bug? How can i solve this ?
I suggest:
1) stop slapd
2) create a backup of your database using appropriate
system tools
3) dump your database using 'ldbmcat -n'
4) remove all files from the database directory
5) restart the server
6) use ldapadd(1) to reload your database
(step 4 would also be a suitable point to install 1.2.6).

Try it with 1.2.6 and if the server crashes file a bug
report with appropriate details.
