CentOS - Mar 2019 - Getting slapd under CentOS 6 to log connections, etc.

I am running the stock OpenLDAP-servers on a CentOS 6 system.  Everything is 
working just fine, but I am trying to debug connections from a Ubuntu (18.04) 
system and want to turn on logging in slapd, but although I can get slapd to 
create a log file, it never actually writes anything.

I have these two lines in  /etc/openldap/slapd.d/cn=config.ldif:

olcLogFile: /var/log/slapd/log
olcLogLevel: conns BER config ACL stats none

And although /var/log/slapd/log gets created, nothing is ever written to it.

What am I missing?

I used misc debug flags for when I invoke slapd:

https://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/runningslapd.html

Note these a bitflags, that can be combined:

  256 	(0x100 stats) 	stats log connections/operations/results
  512 	(0x200 stats2) 	stats log entries sent
