It means that slapd has no idea where to put your entry. The most 
probably cause is that you are trying to create a child entry but the 
parent does not (yet) exist.

In this case its because you made a typo: 
"ou=Policies,dc=j,dc=example=,dc=com" Remove the = behind 
,dc=example=.

At least that is what I assume, under the pretense that you are not 
actually using example=.com as base.
