[...] What does "Sync control : mode decoding error" mean? Any suggestions on next steps for troubleshooting?
See RFC4533 section 2.2 ... mode i.e. refreshOnly or refreshAndPersist.
blindly: I'm not familiar with the Perl module you reference, but perhaps you need to be explicitly specifying this value (i.e. perhaps your API has you sending some uninitialized, invalid value)?
methodically: packet sniffing, say using wireshark and/or slapd debugging facilities, and sit down and figure out if you're sending valid BER/mode value/etc. Or if your client API has some debugging options, but again, I'm not familiar with that side.
