[hylafax-users] No Carrier Detected
Cams
I cant put HYLAFAX and IAXMODEM to WORK.
I have a trixbox 2.6.2.3 up and running with iaxmodem on this TRIXBOX, this server is connected to a HYLAFAX server on debian LENNY using interceptty.
I have a SIP TRUNK and a IAX TRUNK, call are completed just fine, i tried 50 times to send a test fax only one went thru...
WHY?!?!?
Please help me...

I doubt faxing over a VoIP connection to your provider will work. Please see: http://www.soft-switch.org/foip.html

but the strangest thing is that i was able to fax once...
nobody here do fax over a voip connection?
That is not so strange. Faxing over Voip will work once... in a while. But it's the inconsistency of it that makes it unusable. You may want to look into some of the various Fax over IP technologies out there since straight fax data compressed into a lossy codec and sent out a best effort transport method like SIP/IAX will only give you headaches...

The job file q40 shows that commid:000000051
So we look in the log file c000000051 and we see the following:
Nov 04 17:58:44.49: [ 4267]: SESSION BEGIN 000000051 5511XXXXX
Nov 04 17:58:44.49: [ 4267]: HylaFAX (tm) Version 4.4.4

Nov 04 17:59:45.72: [ 4267]: --> [10:NO CARRIER]
Nov 04 17:59:45.72: [ 4267]: SEND FAILED: JOB 40 DEST +5511XXXX ERR [2] No
carrier detected
Nov 04 17:59:46.72: [ 4267]: <-- [5:ATH0\r]
Nov 04 17:59:46.72: [ 4267]: --> [2:OK]
Nov 04 17:59:46.72: [ 4267]: SESSION END
So this tells us that when the modem tried to dial in detected no carrier.
The best place to start troubleshooting this issue is to make sure that you
are able to actually dial out using this /dev/ttyIAX0
And the easiest way to do this is to use minicom and manually initiate the
outbound call with AT commands:
ATD<number>
Until you can actually dial out using minicom and manually providing the AT
commands you can stop expecting HylaFAX to send faxes.
Let us know what happens?
