I have encountered issues like this as well.
They all happened inside this 'frame' :
1) the location document was configured to replicate automatically at regular intervals - and when replication started it crashed
or
2) I was starting replication of a database in the background - crash
The first times I had to do a full re-install - great when you have 20 plus pages and hundresds of databases from scores of servers on your workspace....IBM could you add a 'Desktop import/Desktop export utility or publish how the desktop file is structured so we can do it ourselves ?
Nothing else was working.
Over time I found that the best way was to do the actions listed below, but each time it was a little bit different, and the order was not same.
1) get rid of cache.ndk
2) get rid of bookmarks
3) usually I coud keep desktop, but a few times was not able to
4) go to the replicator page and erase the replication entries
part of my work is to develop, so I have more than a hundered replicas from scores of servers.
I have the impression that there seems to come a point when my location document that stores all the replica 'lines' appearing in the replicator page gets corrupted and only fore-ground replication works.
Never found a real explanation/solution in the forums, but did find similar problems being described solutions of which I listed above.
Presently I always have a location document that is clean and from which I generate a 'production' location document.
The problem seems to have become less frequent from the moment I moved to 8 and then to 8.5 but it did happen.
Hopefully this gives you some directions to look into, if your users are in the same 'frameset'. Feedback appreciated
