Bug Description
The end of the slapd script reports an error if there 'was no' configuration files in /etc/ldap/slapd.d/ by equating 'fail to read' with 'does not exist'. However 'fail to read' could be due to permission issues such as a regular user calling /etc/init.d/slapd.
The error should be adjusted to reflect this is a 'fail to read' issue which *may* be due to : 'does not exist' or to 'could not access'.
The error message could simply be expanded to include the possibility that the user did not have access rights, or the script could be improved to determine if that is the case and report a separate error.

I suspect the issue is general to all ubuntu install scripts but, if needed:
Karmic 9.10 Amd-64
slapd 2.4.18-0ubuntu1 (openldap)
Thanks for the bug report.
