ldap_add: Invalid syntax (21)
       additional info: objectClass: value #2 invalid per syntax

That means the 3rd objectClass value (as they are zero based) is not valid. 
Either you are missing the schema for it (i.e., you haven't loaded it), or 
it's not an objectClass.  Fix your data.

It would look like it doesn't like:

objectClass: domain

so you need to fix why it doesn't like that OC.  Maybe you didn't load the 
schema that defines it.
