alock Package is Unstable
You get the following error attempting to start the ldap service.
service ldap start
Details
You can get this error when instances of LDAP are already running, this can occur if LDAP has not properly shutdown in a LDAP stop event or other condition when the database is already locked. You may also have other LDAP-type processes listed.
[root@server ~]# ps afxw | grep ldap 3487 ? S 0:00 ldapsync 3501 ? S 0:00 \_ ldapsync 18278 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/sbin/saslauthd -m /var/run/saslauthd -a ldap 18284 ?

Solution
To solve this issue, stop all instance of LDAP.
service ldap stop ps aux | grep ldap
If LDAP does not stop you may be required to stop the individual processes using the kill command. We recommend that you use these kill commands in the following order:
kill -15 [pid] ps aux | grep ldap
If that doesn't work:
kill [pid] ps aux | grep ldap
If that doesn't work:
kill -9 [pid] ps aux | grep ldap
