You have a file in /etc/ldap/slapd.d that doesn't belong there.
57d54094 ldif_read_file: read entry file without checksum: "/etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDbIndex.ldif" 57d54094 => str2entry: "dn: olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config changetype: modify add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: entryUUID eq - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: entryCSN eq - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: cn pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: objectClass pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: loginShell pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: uidNumber pres,eq - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: gidNumber pres,eq - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: ou pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: givenName pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: memberUid pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: uid pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: sn pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: mail pres,eq,sub - add: olcDbIndex olcDbIndex: uniqueMember pres,eq - add: olcDbCacheSize olcDbCacheSize: 1000 - add: olcDbIDLCacheSize olcDbIDLCacheSize: 3000 "
The contents of /etc/ldap/slapd.d are slapd's private internal data. You should not touch them, nor store your own things there.
Removing /etc/ldap/slapd.d/cn=config/olcDbIndex.ldif should fix your problem.
