With -d 1 slapadd should have say you what went wrong.

Here are some things I had to modify :

   * If your base is dc=domain,dc=com db.ldif will include dn: dc=com
     which slapadd will refuse.

   * Are your objectclass fully defined ? The debian install includes
     only /etc/ldap/schema/core.schema. You certainly need other
     ones.
