I get the same error after I upgraded to SME 5.0. I have lost access to LDAP directory. Also I get the same message whenever I try to change any detail through SME-Server.
As far as I have seen, nobody seems to have sorted out this problem.
Is it a serios bug?
Should we get back to E-Smith 4.1.2?
If somebody has got the answer, please post it. The situation is quite serious.

After my 4.12->5.0 upgrade I had to:

1) install the latest blades (which re-creates the 'ldap' user)
2) change the ownership of the ldap config & data files:

chown ldap.ldap /etc/openldap/*
chown ldap.ldap /var/lib/ldap/*

I don't know if this is correct but it worked.  YMMV
