I followed your advice by removing wrong lines, but I can not import with
simple line : slapadd -n 0 -l /tmp/config.ldif

Result: slapadd: could not add entry dn="cn=config" (line=1)

Did you remove your existing configuration database files from /etc/ldap or wherever it is they exist prior to running the slapadd? slapadd will not overwrite existing files.

Generally you may want to do something like:

cd /etc/ldap
mv slapd.d slapd.d.orig
mkdir slapd.d
chown ldap:ldap slapd.d

Note that the above is making guesses about (a) the location of your cn=config database and (b) the user/group used by slapd. Adjust accordingly.
