restore - Error while installing openldap server on ubuntu 14.04 mkdir: cannot create directory `/etc/ldap/slapd.conf': File exists -

i trying setup ldap server on ubuntu 14.04. had previous ldap server setup installed on centos 6 uses flat-file configuration i.e slapd.conf method ldap.

now want setup openldap server on ubuntu 14.04. placed contents /etc/openldap centos in /etc/ldap on ubuntu. when seek install ldap using following

$ sudo apt-get install slapd

i getting below error:

setting slapd (2.4.31-1ubuntu2) ... creating initial configuration... mkdir: cannot create directory `/etc/ldap/slapd.conf': file exists dpkg: error processing slapd (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 errors encountered while processing: slapd e: sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned error code (1)

i removed database files /var/lib/ldap/

$ sudo rm -rf /var/lib/ldap/*

then, tried convert slapd.conf slapd.d using

$ sudo slaptest -f slapd.conf -f slapd.d

i error below.

unrecognized database type (bdb) 546470b0 slapd.conf: line 99: <database> failed init (bdb) slaptest: bad configuration directory!

what should done in order utilize slapd.conf of own , configure database.

the next command converts slapd.conf slapd.d:

slaptest -f slapd.conf -f slapd.d

restore configure ubuntu-14.04 openldap
