Hi Andoni
The COMM_FAILURE indicates a communications failure. Its hard to pinpoint exactly why you get this without looking at your code, but it is most likely that your client is not reading the IOR file which your server should have created.
Clearly you have an object reference from somewhere or else your client would have failed earlier. probably its a stale IOR from a server which is no longer running. When the client tries to **use** the object reference, ie communicate with it, the communication can not be established and the exception is thrown.
Hope this helps
