it seems like your ldap server is down.. check the service and ldap's logs

Now after seeing this I found and looked at the slapd.conf file and it has "include /etc/openldap/schema/rfc2739.schema" listed twice. I am wondering if this might be the problem. It appears there was a rfc27739 include file under templates for slapd.conf as well as kronolith entry with an include for the same rfc2739.schema. I moved the rfc one to another location, did a signal -event post upgrade and reboot and that seemed to have fixed everything.
SOGo now works beautifully.
A big thanks to stephdl and Stefano for helping me with this.
