Hi, I noticed a strange behaviour: Faxing using spandsp (TxFax) from my asterisk box to my old, common fax machine at home works fine. Faxing from the same box to my office pc-fax (Hylafax) also worke fine. Receveiving faxes on my asterisk box using spandsp (RxFax) also works fine. It is a PSTN number connected to the digium card of that asterisk box. Then I faxed from my asterisk box (TxFax)

> 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.

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

Anyone know how to fix this? gcc -shared -Xlinker -x -o app_rxfax.so app_rxfax.c -lspandsp -ltiff In file included from app_rxfax.c:14: /usr/include/asterisk/lock.h: In function `ast_mutex_init': /usr/include/asterisk/lock.h:302: error: `PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE' undeclared (first use in this function) /usr/include/asterisk/lock.h:302: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported

-----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: I want to receive a fax with an E1 link connected to A102d card from a fax machine,but after dialling the phone number, it connects then will be busy.In fact asterisk can't detect the fax.These are zapata.conf, extensions.conf filels and debug in console: extensions.conf: [from-pstn] exten => 9711315,1,Answer() exten => 9711315,2,Wait(10) exten =>

Hi Last month, people reported a crash with Asterisk 1.2.13 and spandsp-0.0.3 when receiving a fax using fax detection. Today I've tried 1.2.14 with the latest spandsp 0.0.3pre27 and with the snapshots for app_rxfax.c and app_txfax.c. The problem still happens. Has anyone found how to resolve this issue? I tried emailing Steve Underwood (with crash backtrace) but he hasn't

Scott's SpanDSP FAQ mentions that the senders' TSID (20 bytes sent by sending fax machine) is made available, but doesn't mention where or how. Is there a variable or something that's set? I didn't see it in http://www.voip-info.org/tiki-index.php?page=Asterisk+variables Thanks, Woody

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, Having problems with getting either RxFax or FaxReceive to compile. Running Asterisk 1.4 on CentOS 5. Does anyone have the free/open source executables that you could send me? Thanks for your help! P. S.: TxFax and FaxSend would also be appreciated.

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 Everyone... I am running Asterisk 1.2.22 on Debian "Etch". I installed it from sources. I have also installed tiff-v3.6.0, spandsp-0.0.3. and downloaded http://soft-switch.org/downloads/snapshots/spandsp/test-apps-asterisk-1.2/app_rxfax.c http://soft-switch.org/downloads/snapshots/spandsp/test-apps-asterisk-1.2/app_txfax.c and a Digium TDM card with 4 FXO ports When my dialplan

I am also having problems receiving my first fax. I get a 320byte file (for a 4 page fax). If I look a the tiff generated, is just has some few dots. I am sending the fax from a notebook with Windows XP to an X100P and using libtiff v3.5.7. Has anyone successfully received faxes ? Output to the console as follows: Changed from phase 0 to 1 > Start receiving document > Changed from

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

Hi, Do you have any example showing how to use SendFAX ? I can see several examples of ReceiveFAX but not a single one showing SendFAX.

Well, my faxes passes through asterisk successfully, however I still have some problems about fax reception by rxfax. The softfax answers, and negotiates transmission, however then as some stage of communiation something is wrong. But I have nothing more but this log: Jun 2 00:10:21 DEBUG[16900]: chan_zap.c:4242 zt_read: DTMF digit: * on Zap/10-1 Jun 2 00:10:22 DEBUG[16900]: chan_zap.c:4242

I've seen people mention that they have fax reception working with Asterisk, spandsp, and app_rxfax. I'm using the latest Asterisk from CVS, SpanDSP 0.0.1k, and the latest app_rxfax.c (as mirrored by friendly list members recently), and libtiff 3.5.7. Asterisk is detecting the fax signal properly, and executing the fax extension in the dialplan. The fax part of the dialplan is pretty
