OPENLDAP Installation



I am facing a peculiar problem while trying to install Openldap server on a
SuSE Linux 6.1 machine. Any help will be highly appreciated.
---------------------------
problem:
---------------------------

I tried to configure by  './configure'  and followed the instructions in
the 'INSTALL' manual. Everything is going on successfully. Tests in    the
 Tests directory ( 'cd tests' folled by 'make') does not produce any
error message either.
   Then two files 'myldif'(database file) and 'myslapd.conf' are created
and    stored in the /usr/tmp and /usr/local/etc/openldap directories
respectively.
------------------------------------------   
   contents of 'ldif' file   :
------------------------------------------
   dn: o=adasoft,c=IN
   o: adasoft
   objectclass: organization

   
   dn: cn=d paul, o=adasoft, c=de
   cn: d 
   sn: paul
   mail: d@adasoft.com
   objectclass: person

-------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------
contents of the myslapd.conf file
-------------------------------------------
referral COM_29
database ldbm
suffix "o=adasoft, c=IN"
rootdn "cn=d paul,o=adasoft, c=IN"
rootpw secret

-------------------------------------------
   while tried index data in the myldif and run the    myslapd.conf by the 
     commands from root (su):


  /usr/local/sbin/ldif2index -i /usr/tmp/myldif -f /usr/local/etc/openldap
   error message is : 'no ldbm database found in config file'.

  /usr/local/sbin/ldif2ldbm -i /usr/tmp/myldif -f /usr/local/etc/openldap
   error message is : 'no ldbm database found in config file'.
