Seems fairly obvious to me, if you read the last line of the log you sent 
in.  You are using back-sql, which is highly experimental, and has at least 
20 bug fixes in the HEAD OpenLDAP code.  It quite clearly states at the end 
of your log:

<==backsql_db_open(): test succeeded, schema map loaded
slapcat: database doesn't support necessary operations.


Therefore, slapcat can't export the back-sql db.
