Faxserver recieves Faxes, but sending fax per smtp to user not working

We have the same faxserver problem on 3 different installations.
Faxserver recieves faxes, but is not able to send the fax per smtp to users e-mail address.
All services are running,
in the smtp.log, there is this message:

(1)(2016/02/01 16:29:15.290)( 70675344)(ComponentReplicaImpl::ActivateAsStandby ): Activating component 'Gateway'
(2)(2016/02/01 16:29:18.292)( 70675344)(EXG-10-013 ): system exception, ID 'IDL:omg.org/CORBA/TRANSIENT:1.0'OMG minor code (2), described as '*unknown description*', completed = NO

How can we solve this problem?
thanks in advance
regards Mozi

Do a capture on that SMTP connection against your email server. What does Email Server logs indicate?

I did a tcpdump on faxserver

when a fax is recieved, the fax is put in the users inbox and the smtp.log shows the CORBA error, an in the tcpdump there is no entry with the faxservers IP Address.

Could i be a license Problem?

the smtp log Shows this:
(1)(2016/02/04 09:15:44.670)( 49630096)(XMedius::TraderHelper::QueryOffer ): std exception : Trading service not found. Type : LicenseManagerGroup, Constraint : {}

(2)(2016/02/04 09:15:44.670)( 49630096)(FloatingLicense::Acquire ): std::exception: Trading service not found

I have the same problem for the last two weeks.

The faxes not provided to the email address, but the system alert notifications are working well.
I have the same error messages in the smtp.log

Is port 25 working? Do a nestat and check your firewall iptables. Try to run the Checksystem script

Port 25 is up and working well from the ssh prompt. It looks the fax serer has lost the connection with it's the xmsmtpgateway service. There is no try to access the smtp server in the smtp.log and also no packet in the capture file to the smtp server, so it would be an internal problem in the software.

In the System Monitor/Service Status screen XMSmtpGateway status is "Fault" and membership is "----". The XMSmtpGateway service in opsys level looks running well and the system looks helthy.

All the system alerts are sent through the SMTP server, but none of the faxes are provided.

Any idea? Thanks!

Problem is solved,
Very hard to find the cause.
Someone from the development department connects randomly new Controllers to the Network and an ip address is assigend via dhcp.
Unfortunatly he uses 'localhost' as hostname. So the DNS entry 'localhost' is changed to this new ip address.
During that time the faxserver has problems to resolve the Name localhost.
