this is anything but a valid DN; can you provide
an excerpt of the .ldif that is causing the crash?

The crash itself might (and is likely to be) a
bug, but your input sounds incorrect.  It is
captured by an assertion, that's why the server
"crashes"; actually, it's dying with a precise
indication of the reason of failure.

The ldif I'm trying to import is simply:

dn: dc=com
objectClass: organization
objectClass: dcObject
o: com
dc: com

It has always worked fine (obviously, as a start) when using ldbm. Is there
something wrong here? My base dn in slapd.conf is "", is that inappropriate?
If so, how else can I create base objects without getting "parent does not
exist" etc.?

Thanks for your help!
