[hylafax-users] FaxDispatch not printing or emailing faxes on 6.0.4
Gavin Henry
Outbound faxes are ok, inboudn get received and saved, but FaxDispatch
doesn't seem to get honoured. We have in it:
## $Id$
##
## Default FaxDispatch file - routes all inbound faxes to FaxMaster as PDF
##
## Consult the faxrcvd(8C) man page for more information
##
SENDTO=f...@mycompany.com; # by default email to FaxMaster
FILETYPE=pdf; # in PDF format
/usr/bin/tiff2ps -a $FILE | lpr -P hp3005x
I've check perms and they are:

Now when I run this as root:
sh -x bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000015266.tif" "ttyS0" "000000112" ""
Everything works as expected. We get emailed and a fax prints. This
points to perms in my eyes. What am I missing?
Thanks.

This was an rpm upgrade on CentOS 5 from the latest 4.

So it's running. I also see that there are two FaxDispatch, one in
/etc/hylafax and /var/spool/hylafax/etc
I thought these used to be symlinks, but they are not connected at all
and rpm -qf /etc/hylafax/FaxDispatch shows nothing, but this does:
rpm -qf /var/spool/hylafax/etc/FaxDispatch
hylafax-server-6.0.4-1rhel5
I also added this to both /etc/hylafax/FaxDispatch and the one in /var/spool.
exec 2> /tmp/faxrcvd-err.log
exec 1> /tmp/faxrcvd-out.log
SENDTO=FaxMaster;; # by default email to FaxMaster
FILETYPE=pdf;;
Should there be two ;; in above? I didn't see and /tmp/fax* files either.

What happens when you run this?
sudo -u uucp bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000015266.tif" "ttyS0" "000000112" ""
sudo -u uucp sh -x bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000015266.tif" "ttyS0" "000000112" ""
Do you see any errors?

I tested this before and I've just done:
rpm --setperms hylafax-server-6.0.4-1rhel5
the first sudo command complained about non execute bit, so sorted
that, and faxrcvd doesn't have bash activated, so doesn't run.
> sudo -u uucp sh -x bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000015266.tif" "ttyS0" "000000112" ""
This works, whereas I was testing with which gave "This account is
currently not available.":
su uucp -c 'sh -x bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000015318.tif" "ttyS0" "000000194" ""'
I'll send in a fax again to check.

Hi,
So any ideas about why this works with sudo and not when a fax comes
in? Where/waht else can I debug here?
Does this actually run with sudo? Does it need sudo tty disabled?
Thanks.
Gavin Henry
removed/installed the rpms again so all perms got recreated.
Everything is now working as expected.
Gavin.
