Run the program with the -sync and -debug flags (set debug level to 5
-- that's the maximum) and see if that tells you anything.

You mentioned in your first posting something about some other
non-XForms GUI being involved. Did I misunderstand what you said?
Can you elucidate?

Having two different GUIs talking to the same server over the same
connection could produce the sync errors you are getting.
