 thanks, but, which permissions of which file do i have to check?

The directory and contentes named by the 'directory'
directive(s) in slapd.conf, aka olcDbDirectory in cn=config.

these are the permissions of 'directory' /var/lib/ldap/

drwxr-xr-x 2 openldap openldap 4096 Mar 27 07:58 ldap

must be writable by users also? i mean rwxrwxr-x?

and its contents is:

root@amahoro:/var/lib/ldap# ls -l
total 11448
