Subject: [Phpmyadmin-devel] [4.0.8] server_synchronize.php not found ?
Hello everybody !
I've just downloaded phpMyAdmin 3.5.8.2 and 4.0.8 to install them locally and to be
able to administrate my remote databases.
I have to sync 2 databases (2 different servers), I've done it already with another
3.X installation, now on 4.0.8, I can't find the "synchronize" tab, which
previously pointed to "server_synchronize.php".
Is it a discontinued feature or something like that ? It's still present in 3.5.8.2.
Thank you for your help.

Hello Adnan,
As outlined in the ChangeLog for phpMyAdmin 4.0.0, we removed the
synchronize feature that existed in the 3.5.x series:
https://github.com/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin/blob/RELEASE_4_0_0/ChangeLog#L72
We removed the existing Synchronize feature because of serious flaws:
http://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/mailman/message/30067703/
However, we plan to recreate an improved edition for a future version.
In the meantime, I suggest you to take a look at MySQL’s own
replication feature, for keeping two database servers in sync.

Thanks for asking about this!
Best,
