‘Archive’ in Server Admin not working

[HEMI]

I’m in the process of getting things ready to move from 10.4 Server to 10.5 Server. We’re using OD to manage user accounts. Instead of re-adding all the accounts manually I’d really like Apple’s tools to work properly and archive the OD database, but things are not going well. The archive file name is created (followed by sparseimage), but after Server Admin gets done doing its thing there’s no actual archive anywhere.

After poking around in the logs, I found some errors in slapconfig.log. Has anyone seen this before? Have any ideas for a fix?

It dies at the hdiutil command with completely un-helpful error messages.

I suppose worst-case scenario is I just go through the commands one by one, debugging as I go…But I’m hoping someone’s encountered this before.
