I have the same problem. horde 4.0.3,kronolith 3.0.3,mnemo 3.0.1,turba 3.0.2,ingo 2.0.1,imp 5.0.3,nag 3.0.1. Attached you will find the log of my failed sync attempt. syslog.txt contains the errors emitted there. I've scrubbed the logs of my IMEI and password. No wbxml was created. I can workaround it by clearing out the database for the user and the telling the syncml client to replace the information on the server. If it were just me then it would be ok. But it is not.

I got the same error occationally, but I can not determinately reproduce it. I will provide logs as soon as I get the error again.

Please read http://wiki.horde.org/SyncMLProblemReport and follow the steps to generate complete SyncML debugging information.

I find it really complicated to report sync problems properly... I just deleted all syncml state regarding contacts from horde, deleted all addresses and started a "refresh-from-client" sync with syncevolution. This successfully uploaded all clients. A subsequent slow (or refresh-from-client) sync however fails with the reported behavior.

I'm using syncevolution to sync my evolution address book with turba. I start a slow sync and all 45 contacts are send to the horde server. But syncevolution doesn't exit, it complains about an unexpected reply from the server and retries 3 times, finally giving up after 6 minutes. While the address book was empty before the sync, it is filled with all contacts even before the first error message turns up. Attached is a somewhat anonymized horde debug log.
