What platform are you using? There was almost certainly a suitable

In OpenLDAP, the admin's DN doesn't normally exist in the directory.
The DN and password are stored in slapd.conf.

Google helps you find things, but doesn't usually provide anything
directly. Where, specifically did you get it?

Yes, that is an indication that openldap does not allow you to specify
structuralObjectClass.

Then you haven't created the base DN, or the OU objects it normally
contains, like "ou=people".
