1. 2.4.11 is quite old. I'd recommend to use a more recent release.

2. Not sure what your upgrade path was. uidNumber is indexed? So I'd
suggest to stop slapd and re-index the whole database since the index
format was modified.

You should query the subschema subentry for finding out which schema
elements are actually there.
