I'm not familiar with the Apache::AuthCookieLDAP module, so you'd have
to refer to its documentation for details.  It may be a word, phrase or
password depending on the module.  I'd start with the
SALDAP_SecretKeyFile that you've specified in your httpd.conf:

See if it exists and verify that the UID under which the web server is
running has permission to access that file.
