Hello All, I am looking to get asterisk to receive faxes but I really don't know where to go from here, any help pointing me in the right direction would be great. What I would really like is for this second line to answer faxes, but if a user typing in an extension it goes to that extension but I need to get the fax working first. Error I get when I turn on Fax conf... pbx.c:1945

Hello, I'm trying to receive faxes with asterisk. My configuration is like this: PSTN fax -> ISDN -> Cisco router with VoIP module -> Asterisk When I try to send a fax from PSTN fax I got the standard fax signal, Asterisk starts rxfax application and then call ends and there is no tif anywhere. On the fax display there is still one message: Calling... Part of my extensions.conf:

Hi Matt, I have verified with ztmonitor the audio level and it was too low, then with this the fax machine report "Not Response". I modified the audio level in zapata.conf and after that the fax machine report "Commnunication Error". Do you an idea what could be ?

Hi folks, I am having a small problem with asterisk-1.6.2.7 + app_fax on OpenBSD 4.7 -release. Everything seems to work fine. I have a macro which answers, receives the fax to a tiff, and then runs a script (mailfax) to convert that to pdf and email it. It all works perfectly except for some errors I am seeing in the console. After it hangs up I get a dozen or so messages in the cli

Hello, Let me start by saying I have checked the wiki and the archives and did find some relative information. I tried the suggestions in those threads, but still have the same problem. I'm using the CVS Asterisk from July 11, 2005. Redhat FC2 SpanDSP 0.0.2pre18 Libtiff 3.5.7 Digium PCI card 1 FXO, 1FXS. I have a single POTS line coming, but I have 2 numbers and am using

Hi, I'm having problems with the rxFax app. One of the messages that appear in my console is: Executing Set("SIP/something", "FAXFILE=/var/spool/asterisk-fax/1137692307.5.tif") in new stack -- Executing RxFAX("SIP/something", "/var/spool/asterisk-fax/1137692307.5.tif") in new stack Jan 19 12:38:30 NOTICE[12008]: channel.c:1906 ast_read: Dropping

Hello All, I have downloaded and installed spandsp and downloaded rxfax, etc and rebuilt asterisk with app_rxfax. I have added the following to my extensions.conf: [macro-faxreceive] ; ${ARG1} - sendto e-mail exten => s,1,Wait(2) exten => s,2,Answer exten => s,3,SetVar(FAXFILE=/var/spool/asterisk-fax/fax-${MACRO_EXTEN}-${TIMESTAMP}) exten => s,4,SetVar(EMAILADDR=${ARG1}) exten =>

Hi, I'm trying to setup a system where incoming faxes are received using SpanDSP and then send on to another (remote) fax machine. The SpanDSP part is working excellently, however I dont seem to be able to get the forwarding part to work. Heres what I put into my extensions.conf: exten => s,4,Answer() exten => s,5,Set(FAXFILE=/tmp/fax-${UNIQUEID}.tif) exten =>

I'm using Slackware 11. I unistalled the package that provides libtiff 3.8..... and installed the most current 3.7.... for lib tiff. I downloaded asterisk 1.4 beta3 and the 1.4 beta2 addons and untared them. created a simlink: ln -s asterisk-1.4.0-beta3 asterisk I've compiled spandsp from as follows cd /usr/src wget

Hi, I have got my Asterisk server running with TDM400 card (2xFXO & 2xFXS). I originally had the system configured with a Panasonic fax machine on one of the extensions. Due to the high volume of fax spam, I figured it would be a much better idea to capture the faxes as TIF or PDF files to minimize wasted paper, etc. I have downloaded, compiled and installed spandsp and can see the rxfax

This probably came up before, but I have a faxing question for everyone. I have a simple extension setup to use rxfax to receive faxes sent to asterisk. It is: exten => s,1,Answer() exten => s,n,AbsoluteTimeout(300) exten => s,n,Set(FAXFILE=/var/spool/asterisk/fax/${ARG1}_${CALLERIDNUM}_${UNIQUEID}.tif) exten => s,n,rxfax(${FAXFILE}) exten => s,n,System(/usr/bin/mailfax

How should be the macro rewritten? [macro-faxreceive] exten => s,1,Set(FAXFILE=/var/spool/asterisk-fax/${UNIQUEID}.tif) exten => s,2,DBGet(EMAILADDR=extensionemail/${MACRO_EXTEN}) exten => s,3,rxfax(${FAXFILE}) exten => s,103,Set(EMAILADDR=ronald@elmit.com) exten => s,104,Goto(3) ...

Hello, my configuration is the following: a TDM400P board with an fxs and fxo daughter boards on it. I thus connect a fax to my FXS port, after having verified that this port was correctly functioning. For this, I had tried before with a simple phone, and with some basic voicemail exten scripts. Here is my simple dialplan for my fax reception: exten => 300,1,Ringing() exten =>

Hello, I have a rather odd problem with Asterisk detecting faxes. I have two POTS lines coming into the box (TDM400P). Line 1 is for voice, Line 2 is fof fax. When I set them up with channel => 1-2 in zapata.conf, all is fine, but as soon as I have two channel => definitions, Asterisk is unable to detect faxes. The fax line is not supposed to ring local phones, so the most obvious

Hi, all. I've got app_rxfax going and nicely receiving a fax, which I then throw to a script, and have it convert it to a PDF and mail it. Works great... a lot of the time. But a fair bit of the time, rxfax throws errors, and extensions.conf seems never to invoke my script. Here are the pertinent lines: exten => _6403,n,rxfax(${FAXFILE}) exten =>

I have managed to get spandsp working, and if I dial a specific extension I can receive faxes. WhooHoo. However, I was wanting to use the "fax detect" option in order to allow individuals to receive faxes, but can't get that to work. Given the following extensions (mainly copied from examples on the wiki), why is the call simply passed onto the sip device rather than being

Maybe I over-complicated my question with the mailfax part. If I leave the mailfax step out entirely, then there should be a .tif file, right? But there's not. No tif file gets created at all. Permissions on the fax folder are 777 at the moment. Thanks for the responses so far. /Rob -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi, I'm using spandsp-0.0.3 [http://www.soft-switch.org/downloads/snapshots/spandsp/ spandsp-20061116.tar.gz] on a bristuffed asterisk (1.2.13) [http://212.91.251.199/~junghanns.net/downloads/bristuff-0.3.0- PRE-1v.tar.gz] libtiff is at version 3.6.0 Running on: Linux router2 2.6.17-2-686 #1 SMP Wed Sep 13 16:34:10 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux Debian testing distro.

I have no analog line interfaces on my asterisk system, but I do have two UK 0870 numbers routed to two separate VoIP accounts (one with FWD, one with gossiptel). Asterisk is configured to register with these accounts. I get voice calls through just fine this way. I thought I could get one of these 0870 numbers to route through to rxfax, thus allowing folks to fax me directly. I've set up

Hi all!....i'm in course to implement Faxing in my asterisk box and for that I've installed all succesfully like libtiff and spandsp and next rebuild and reinstall asterisk modules, but when i call to Rxfax from dialplan nothing happens and i get some errors like "XCN with final frame tag In state 9" or a paper copy of a transmision report from the fax machine with COMMUNICATION
