similar to: TxFax -> RxFax on same machine hangs

> AFAIK the current recommendation is to use HylaFax with something called iaxmodem. After having been through a lot of problems with RxFax and TxFax I completely agree with this statement. Allthough the initial configuration is a bit complicated, once you have this running you'll get far better reliability. Kind regards, Ardjan Zwartjes.

the attached log with verbose=6 and debug=6 refers. we've got a sangoma A104 (no hwec) with PRI ports 1 & 3 loopbacked to each other. we're trying to have txfax send out on one of those pri ports with rxfax listening on the other side, hence having asterisk send a fax to itself. we however have bad, and i mean really bad (<10%) success rates. we're currently using asterisk

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

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, anyone else seen RX/TXFax crashing Asterisk on latest Asterisk SVN? I've now seen it on two machines I tried to set up - one it seems because the tiff file was malformed, but the other is doing: tiff -> tx fax -> zaptel -> pstn -> ddi -> zaptel -> rx fax -> tiff The above crashes every time. If no one else has

Hi everyone ! I have some aditional info on problem with TXFax and sending multi-page TIFFs. I have made 6 different multi-page TIFFs (Group3 1D with fillbits EOL aligned - 3 pages one TIFF in lowres and one in hires, Group3 2D -3 pages againg in both resolutions , and Group 4 - 3pages in both resolutions), and then tried to send them to Panasonic KX-F1100, Panasonic KX-F500 and SpanDSP

I just want to pdf and email faxes coming in over pstn on a TDM400P. Outgoing faxes would just go out over pstn, not through asterisk. All the voipinfo , etc, howto's are quite complicated. And most use third party apps like Hylafax. I thought there was a rxfax and txfax in 1.4. And 1.6 had app_fax. I'm now using 1.4.22, but I'd go to 1.6 if it made this easier. But I've

Hello, I have installed SpanDSP and the apps txfax an rxfax. Unfortunately I am having problems sending faxes. I only get cancelled transfers. I am trying to send a fax to a ISDN card connected to a zap channel. I am using following call file: ------------------------------- Channel: ZAP/g1/25 MaxRetries: 0 WaitTime: 20 Application: txfax Data: /tmp/lVD3wy.tiff|caller Asterisk shows:

Hi Steve and all, 1. Faxing from asterisk back to the same asterisk (from one Zap channel to another) doesn't work for us. Txfax called with the 'caller' parameter issues CED, while the receiving side needs CNG in order to switch to fax extension with rxfax. 2. This is probably the reason why J2 and our UC don't recognize incoming fax. Thank you. Alex Zarubin Webley Systems

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

Hi Gang, I'm trying to make an application to upload a tiff via a web interface, slap a cover page onto it, merge the two into a new tiff and send it out via txfax. I'm able to get it out to a fax machine using this sequence: /usr/bin/tiff2pdf /tmp/faxout/1229978819_filea.tif -o /tmp/faxout/1229978819_filea.pdf /usr/bin/gs -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -q -sDEVICE=pdfwrite

Dear All, I'm having problem with spandsp/txfax, I'm not able to send a multi paged tiff file, the fax machine receives the first page of the document and complains about communication problem. The file what I'm trying to send has 2 pages and is received & generated by spandsp/rxfax. Searched in the archives, but found no solution. I'm using: Dell Optiplex PC Inoteska Quad

Hello ! I 'm trying T.38 faxig with spandsp using rxfax/txfax as fax terminal. As another endpoint I 'm using Grandstream HT 486 ATA and a fax machine. Has anybody success with the HT486 as T.38 terminal ? ATA as originator: I managed only onetimes a successfull T.38 fax session. The other times the HT486 did not initiate a re-invite with T.38 parameters. Or shall the Terminator

Hi, I'm using asterisk with a digium TDM400P: I can't send/recive faxes with a Philips fax machine. It seems that the fax machine doesn't recognize the carrier. How can I see the spandsp logs? I've enabled debug on the asterisk CLI, but I can't see any output while the txfax/rxfax application runs. Stefano Arata.

I followed the instructions at http://www.opencall.org/instructions.html and http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2003-October/025094.html I was able to compile spandsp (./configure ; make ; make install), "manually" patched asterisk apps/Makefile (/usr/src/asterisk/apps), as the supplied patch does not fit the actual CVS apps/Makefile After make clean ; make install, I

Hi list, Just installed spandsp. In my limiting testing, I have an issue on a Philips fax machine (HFC21) directly connected to my * server through TDM400, reception with rxfax works fine, but txfax always fails. Below is a transcript of failed transmit. This is with asterisk-1.0.3 (with native moh patch but I don't think it is the source of the problem). I already tried libtiff 3.5.7,

I have asterisk with rxfax txfax modules.I want to test fax sendig and reciving in one asterisk instance, in extensions.conf I have : exten => 1234567,1,rxfax(/home/patryk/fax-new.tif|debug) exten => s,1,Dial(1234567) exten => s,2,txfax(/home/patryk/fax.tif|caller|debug) but I doesn't seem to work.But when I'm calling on this number I can hear fax tones.

Hi, I have installed the latest version of asterisk(1.4.0-beta3), and built app_rxfax/txfax. I'm using spandsp from here, http://www.soft-switch.org/downloads/snapshots/spandsp/spandsp-20061207.tar.gz Everything builds ok. I had to manually apply the patch from the site so configure would spot spandsp libraries. However, when I try dialing my virtual fax extension (either from a phone or
