Thank you, I have installed the package:
gdb -q -x /root/gdb.init --args /usr/sbin/slapd -h ldap:/// ldapi:/// -g
openldap -u openldap -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -l local5
Reading symbols from /usr/sbin/slapd...Reading symbols from

Problem:
For a customer we use LDAP for many years. Last year suddenly the
slapd service just stopped without any traces in the logfiles.
After a restart of slapd everything works fine again. But the
problem was there: it was not an incident, now and then slapd just
stops and always without any traces in the logfiles. Sometime
three times a day, sometime a week without a failure. I can't find
a pattern or any relation to any other service on the linux
server.
Attach to the running slapd with gdb, type
handle all nostop
continue
and let it run. If there's a crash you'll see what happened in gdb.
I tried it but I don't get this working. I have no experience with
gdb. I assume I do something wrong.
Normally slapd daemon runs like this on a test machine
/usr/sbin/slapd -h ldap:/// ldapi:/// -g openldap -u openldap
-f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -l local5
If I try this running attached to gdb:
su openldap -s /bin/bash
gdb --args /usr/sbin/slapd -h ldap:/// ldapi:/// -g openldap -u
openldap -f /etc/ldap/slapd.conf -l local5
GNU gdb (GDB) 7.0.1-debian
....
This GDB was configured as "i486-linux-gnu".

May be it's agood idea to install the slapd package with debug infos.
aptitude search slapd
i slapd - OpenLDAP server (slapd)
p slapd-dbg - Debugging information for the
OpenLDAP server
