My first impression is that this appears to be a software bug or a data issue.

I would be interested to know:

Are you are able to run the Synchronize Changes GP tool outside of python?

Are you able to run the SynchronizeChanges_management function in a python script if your hardcode all your parameters?

Are you able to sync using the replica manager tools?

There does not appear to be anything in the script that should cause this type of failure.

Question: Are you are able to run the Synchronize Changes GP tool outside of python?

Answer: Yes. while i run the synchronize changes tool in the Distributed Geodatabases toolbar everything works fine

Question:Are you able to run the SynchronizeChanges_management function in a python script if your hardcode all your parameters?

Answer: Everything fails in standalone script and on python window.

Question: Are you able to sync using the replica manager tools?

Not tried this.

Most likely as you predict, the error is a data issue. I am dealing with like 30,000 parcels in the parcel fabric model.

However, most intriguing is that the stand alone python script crashes PyScripter. If you run the same piece of code on Python Window in ArcMap, ArcMap crashes as well.
