I have no knowledge of a "windows version" of openLdap.  OpenLDAP software
comes in source form, so wherever you manage to compile it, there is no
way to know details about what you've done.  Can you specify the version
of the software, and details about how you compiled and on what system?

As soon as the code is the same, apart from few OS related configuration
parameters (e.g. path names) I expect the configuration file to be the
same across versions...

Apparently, slapd is configured without support for back-sql.

Answer the above questions to allow further help, and try to have back-sql
support compiled into your binary.
