You *might* be able to recover the document, *if and only if* the recording 
quality is high enough.  Easiest way to try it is to call up a fax machine  
(either an actual real one, or a copy of Hylafax)  from Asterisk and play the

Hylafax might even be able to do this directly; so if you don't have a real 
fax machine, start looking there.

[asterisk-users] asterisk 1.8 fax woes

2010-11-13 Thread Jeremy Kister
I upgraded from a perfectly working 1.6.2 asterisk installation 
(including fax via app_fax_digium) to 1.8.0 this evening.

All my custom modules (including swift thanks darren!) are working 
fine except for fax.

When a caller connects, asterisk switches to the fax context and hangs 
up the call.

i've captured with:
  core set verbose 10
  core set debug 10
  fax set debug on
  sip set debug peer vgw1

(vgw1 is my cisco 1760 ata)

http://jeremy.kister.net/tmp/fax/console.txt
http://jeremy.kister.net/tmp/fax/messages.txt
http://jeremy.kister.net/tmp/fax/sip.txt


I've tried using the packaged app_fax_spandsp and also Digium's 
app_fax_digum for 1.8.0-rc1 -- no difference in behavior.

Anyone have any ideas how I can get this fixed?

I was wrong, asterisk does not even switch to the fax extension-

i added a noop, and it's not making it:

exten = fax,1,NoOp( in fax extension )
exten = fax,n,Goto(fax,rx,1)

the call ends before the noop.

Have you tried doing tests where you send all calls straight into ReceiveFax
and disable faxdetect? That may help track down where the problem is at
least. You can put a noop before the call to receivefax if you'd like, but
keep it simple and don't do anything else for this part of the test.

If you've got a paid for Fax license (as opposed to Free Fax) then you can
also contact Digium Support.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk t38modem Fax gateway evaluation

2010-02-18 Thread Philipp von Klitzing
Hi!

 Is it possible to decouple the internal Fax communication from ISDN
 using t38modem or as an alternative Fax For Asterisk, perhaps in
 conjunction with HylaFAX? 

Look at HylaFax first, and I guess that you will be happier with leaving 
T.38 out of the picture. 

Do note that hardware can also be sold, not only bought. :-) A ISDN BRI-
analog adapter (example. DeTeWe TA33) is a typical partial solution for a 
stable solution - for those who focus on ISDN, and those who can sync 
internal BRI to external BRI/PRI.

 I was unable to find any current information about theese subjects on
 the www. 

Start here: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/index.php?page=Asterisk+fax

P.S.: It does help to understand your situation if you state in which 
country you are.

If you are trying to get from the PSTN to a FAX machine on an ATA 
neither Fax for Asterisk or HylaFAX will be of much help. You need a 
T.38 gateway function running in the Asterisk box to talk to the ATA. 
There are patches around for adding that function to Asterisk, but its 
not in the standard distribution.
 I was unable to find any current information about theese subjects on
 the www. Most postings/articles are 4-6 years old and state that it's
 impossible, but this was way before t38modem and Fax for Asterisk. I
 would be really grateful if anybody could come up with some current
 information, howtows, etc.

4-6 was before Fax for Asterisk, but several options for faxing to and 
from a file, including t38modem, have existed for a long time. Digium 
has just been extremely slow integrating a T.38 gateway function into 
the Asterisk distribution.

[asterisk-users] asterisk dahdi fax problem

2010-02-17 Thread Peter Gelencser
Hi,

I run into a problem and I'm not shure what do I misconfigure. I've a 
B410P ISDN card with bri_cpe signalling and two Openvox (A1200, A800) 
cards with fxo_ks signalling, all with dahdi drivers. I can receive fax 
from a public number, but I can't send fax. The CLI says it picks up the 
line but no dialing. I tried the extension with an analog phone, it 
works fine, I can dial out (the required fax answers), I can dial 
extensions.

The settings in the extensions.conf are:

FAX=DAHDI/21

exten = 51,1,Dial(${FAX})
exten = 51,n,Playback(vm-nobodyavail)
exten = 51,n,Hangup()


What do I miss? Thanks for you help in advance.

Best regards,

Agreed... if he's actually running a FAX application on Asterisk. If
this is a bridged call, the other endpoint may have offered to support
those features. Without a description of the actual call scenario, we

[asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.6.1.11 Fax

2009-12-10 Thread Cyprus VoIP
Hello,

We're trying to receive faxes on the Asterisk server, but for the time 
being T.38 negotiation fails.

The SDP that the Asterisk reINVITE sends contains these lines:
--
m=image 4968 udptl t38
a=T38FaxVersion:0
a=T38MaxBitRate:9600
a=T38FaxFillBitRemoval

a=T38FaxTranscodingJBIG
a=T38FaxRateManagement:transferredTCF
a=T38FaxMaxDatagram:1400
a=T38FaxUdpEC:t38UDPRedundancy
--

The MaxDatagram and MaxBitRate are definitely not what they should be, 
and maybe other parameters are also wrong. I would like to have 400 and 
14400 respectively.

That's the udptl.conf:

--

Can anyone help us identify the problem?

There is no point in having a smaller T38FaxMaxDatagram value;
Asterisk's FAX applications can handle larger packets than 400 bytes, so
 Asterisk is telling the sending endpoint that it can send them if it
wishes to do so.

As far as the T38MaxBitRate, that is only a suggestion in the
negotiation, and rarely has any effect on the negotiation process or on
the resulting FAX transmission.

As before, you've provided only a very small amount of information, not
enough to be able to help you determine what is wrong. Nothing in that
SDP offer indicate any problems of any kind. In addition, you haven't
indicated which FAX applications in Asterisk you are using (app_fax or
res_fax), which could also have an impact on the T.38 negotiation process.

If you'd like people to be able to help you debug problems, you need to
provide enough information for them to do so; most of us are not
clairvoyant, telepathic or omniscient. In any situation where T.38
negotiation is failing, that means a 'sip set debug on' log trace that
shows the entire T.38 negotiation transaction, ideally with 'core set
debug 10' and 'core set verbose 10' as well so we can see all the
actions that Asterisk and the FAX application took during the
negotiation process.

Hi Kevin,

thank you for your response.

Before posting my question, I analyzed the entire SIP negotiation and it 
was fine. The problem began in the T.38 negotiation itself, after the 
Asterisk's reINVITE. I don't have the old calls traces anymore, but I'll 
make new ones tomorrow and post them here.

Regarding the MaxBitRate, is it possible to increase it to 14400 or is 
9600 the max allowed?

Regards,

Andreas

The T.38 negotiation is part of the SIP negotiation, so that comment
doesn't make a lot of sense.

 Regarding the MaxBitRate, is it possible to increase it to 14400 or is 
 9600 the max allowed?

It is controlled by the endpoint that is performing the T.38 negotiation
in Asterisk, either an application or a channel driver (if the call is
bridged to another channel). It can be set to any value allowed by the
T.38 Recommendation, but it will only be set to values that the
application actually supports. Increasing it is no way going to make
your T.38 negotiation succeed if they are failing, nor will it make
FAXes work if they are failing. It's purely an informational element.

Something is wrong if Asterisk is sending:

a=T38FaxFillBitRemoval
a=T38FaxTranscodingMMR
a=T38FaxTranscodingJBIG

Spandsp supports T38FaxFillBitRemoval, but neither spandsp or Commetrex support 
the other two options. The Commetrex guys have said so in the FoIP working 
group.

Step 1: This is an asterisk-users question.
Step 2: This is not an asterisk-dev question.
Step 3: Do not post to both mailing lists at once.

Those directions definitely don't tell you how to configure your Cisco gear.

Step 4: Your Cisco gateway sure seems to be refusing your fax, right?
Step 5: What happens when you try sending the fax from the Cisco to
your asterisk?
Step 6: What happens when you try sending a fax through Cisco as an audio fax?
Step 7: How have you configured your Cisco dialpeer?

Step 8: We've talked about this multiple times in the last few months
on the asterisk-users list. Please review the archives and tell us
whether you've tried the dial-peers and dialplans posted there.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk and fax

2008-02-13 Thread Carlos Chavez
I would recommend you use Iaxmodem / Hylafax / Avantfax for your needs.
We use this with several customers and it works very well.  This way you
do not have to patch Asterisk with spanDSP.  You can set up as many
virtual fax machines as your machine will handle.

We use (at multiple sites, mostly BRI) iaxmodem and hylafax. Extra

 The most recent versions of t38modem can apparently provide both a SIP

 cannot provide is an audio FAX interface.


What is an audio FAX interface ?
I'm not sure to understand what it is.

 The sipmodem code I am working
 on will integrate audio and T.38 FAX processing in a single SIP entity.

Apparently, indeed. I've been unable to get it to send faxes via a

so it may or may not work for you.

Same here, but HylaFAX won't send you any logs of attempts that haven't 
at least negotiated a fax transmission.  Call comes in, tries to sync up 
several times and then hangs up.  It gets logged, but doesn't get sent 
to the FaxMaster.  You may want to check.

If I had ANY failed faxes I would here about it. Iaxmodem creates a log of its 
own, so when I get a connection that fails hylafax sends the failure to me. One 
of the things that I found is you need to add nojitterbuffer to the iaxmodem 
config file, only use g711, and you must have QOS enabled on your switches 
and/or a traffic shaper on your internet connection.

I have a remote office that uses an IAX trunk and I can fax between these to 
offices over the internet. I have both app_txfax and app_rxfax also setup on 
asterisk and can use any of them. We also have 1 linksys ata that has a 
networked brother printer/fax and we can send faxes from it to any of the fax 
services on our network or any PSTN number.

The reason that you need the nojitterbuffer in the iaxmodem config file 
is because you're actually getting at least some jitter.

IAXmodem's jitterbuffer simply fills-in gaps due to jitter with 
previously-heard audio samples.  There is no way to recreate the missing 
audio.  Filling-in the gaps with previous audio samples is effective in 
preventing premature carrier loss conditions, but it messes up the 
modems until real carrier loss does occur.  It turns out that in most 
cases it's better to simply skip over the missing audio.  The DSP seems 
to handle that quite gracefully.

I'd say consider yourself very lucky.  I know I did some testing here
some time ago with faxing over VoIP.

* One extension to another over G711a with both extensions on the
  same LAN - worked 95% of the time
* One extension on my Asterisk server to an Extension on a friend's
  Asterisk server using G711a via IAX - 95% failure rate.  Both of
  us awere on the same ISP and had ping times of ~40ms between us.

However, in a live environment, I convert a PSTN call to a t.38 encoded
call and can send the fax just about anywhere I damn well want (where
the remote end supports t.38) with a 95% success rate.

t.38 is the key to successful faxing over a VoIP network.  Without it,
you're begging for trouble.

As the person behind the tools you are relying on, I can say you haven't 
tried hard at all. You are just lucky, and almost certainly just being 
very reliant on the majority of your FAXes using ECM mode, and retrying 
a lot.

Trying hard for FAX over IP means implementing T.37, or at least T.38. 
These are engineered solutions, not pot luck. Your present arrangement 
assumes G.711 (not available a lot of the time), no signal manipulation 
in the system beyond your controls (getting rarer and rarer), a very 
crude network doing nothing to improve voice quality (should be getting 
rarer too), limited packet loss (which is truly pot luck over the 
internet, which you say you use), and a few other magic qualities.

A number of people claim solid FAXing results across VoIP paths, like 
they've achieved some engineering breakthrough. The claims tend to 
evaporate under closer inspection.

Steve,

One of the main reasons that this works is controlling the data to and from the 
internet. I have spent the last 10 years building networks for ISP's. The key 
is getting the data from point a to point b in tact and in order. 

I did not get lucky as you put it. I am a network engineer and I know how to 
make networks work the way they need to.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk 1.4 Fax

2008-01-01 Thread Rob Hillis
I think perhaps you are the exception rather than the rule.

Maybe you were able to engineer your network so that fax works without
any of the FoIP protocols - good luck to you if you have.  For /most/
people, it's unlikely they would have sufficient control over their WAN
segment to ensure that it is sufficiently fast and reliable enough for
fax to work reliably.

In any case, why on earth would you attempt to re-invent the wheel? 
T.38 is not only considerably more reliable and robust, it's nowhere
/near/ as bandwidth intensive as G711.

The original question was regarding using IAXmodem and Hylafax to
receive faxes over a SIP connection.  Given that T.38 can not work in
this situation, the simple answer is that it /isn't/ the best solution.

Unless your provider provides a T.38 gateway, fax over SIP is pretty
much guaranteed to be unusable.  Often you can get away with it over a
LAN using G711a or G711u, but any of the lower bandwidth codecs /won't/
be able to properly handle fax calls.

Whilst I haven't used it myself, I believe IAXmodem and Hylafax are used
for sending and receiving faxes from a local PSTN termination point such
as T1 or ISDN.

The IAXmodem web site explains the pitfalls of faxing over the
internet.  See http://iaxmodem.sourceforge.net/faq.php for more info. 
Last time I heard IAXModem didn't support T.38 because the IAX2 protocol
didn't support T.38 - whether that's still the case or not, I don't know.

If by fax box you mean an ATA with a fax machine attached them
Asterisk 1.4 with T38 passthrough should work if the SIP provider has
T.38 capabilites.

If by fax box you mean a 'faxmail inbox' then no Asterisk cannot
help you terminate that from SIP. Get a Cisco gateway, make sure your
provider uses T.38 and connect that to your Asterisk via T1 or E1.

 Last time I heard IAXModem didn't support T.38 because the IAX2 
 protocol didn't support T.38 - whether that's still the case or not, I 
 don't know.
There are actually two reasons. One is that T.38 over IAX is not 
defined. The other is the current T.38 termination support in spandsp is 
only for the full FAX machine it contains. T.38 termination to the class 
1 FAX modem (T.31) interface for HylaFAX is a work in progress. When 
that is done, I hope we will have a sipmodem to replace iaxmodem, 
offering bother audio and T.38 to HylaFAX functionality.

HylaFAX+ has built-in support for handling transmission errors.  It used 
to be (Not sure now) that when rx/txfax encountered an error, it just 
quit.  HylaFAX+ also has many features available for 
converting/scheduling and routing inbound/outbound faxes.

I think that you mean to say HylaFAX and IAXmodem  or  txfax/rxfax ... 
because spandsp is but a DSP/DCE library, and it cannot work alone, and 
iaxmodem uses spandsp.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk - Spandsp Fax not working?

2007-10-05 Thread Pirlouwi
Hi Marco,
could you try again with different quality settings on your hardware fax?
I see 1728 x 540 in your spandsp log.
I think spandsp is only compatible with :
standard: width=1728 x length=1128
fine: width=1728 x length=2252
super-fine: width=1728 x length=4491
which are the 3 resolution you commonly find in G3 faxes.
I don't know what this mode is : 1728x540.
Regards,
Pirlouwi.

 thank you for your reply.
 I've installed the configuration that you suggested (asterisk 1.2.24,

 faxes straight from the trunk.

Marco,

First off, do not use any version over 0.0.3. I am using 0.0.3 on centos 
4.5, asterisk 1.2.24 and freepbx 2.3 and it is working very well. One 
very important thing to keep in mind is that faxing over voip will only 
work reliably with ulaw or alaw and your internet connection MUST be 
able to sustain a constant data stream with low jitter. If your 
interested I have a shell script to install asterisk 1.2.24 and 
freepbx-2.3 with rxfax and txfax on centos 4 and working on centos 5.

[asterisk-users] asterisk and fax machine

2007-05-21 Thread aslay-pinwee
Hi,

I need to share my PSTN line with my Digium card together with my FAX machine.
If fax coming in, will asterisk pick up the call or my fax machine pick up the 
call.

How do I make asterisk not to answer the incoming fax and let my fax machine 
receive
the fax. Similarly, how do I make my fax machine not to answer any voice call 
and let
my asterisk answer..

Re: [asterisk-users] asterisk and fax machine

2007-05-21 Thread Thomas Artner
Hi!

Either the fax machine or the asterisk box has to pick up the call to
know whether it is a fax or not.

My solution is that I let asterisk pick up every call, and if it is a
fax, then the call is forwarded to a fax-machine.
If its a voice call, the call is forwarded to the phones.




[incoming]
exten = s,1,Answer()   ;automatic answer for fax recognition
exten = s,2,Wait(3);prevents ringing when it is a fax
exten = s,3,Dial(Sip/21Sip/22Sip/25Sip/26,45,t) ;ring phones
exten = s,4,Hangup ;hangup after 45 secondes

;is it a fax? then take it here!
exten = fax,1,Dial(Zap/1)





But this solution implies that asterisk picks up every call immediately.
So the caller has to pay for the call before he can talk to you.

That is what I do as well. Use the fax extension to forward FAX calls.
This does require that the FAX machine be connected to an FXS port on
your Digium card. 

I do this with another computer with a FAX modem connected to an FXS
port on my Digium card and it works great. Eventually, I'd like to move
the FAX modem to the same machine with the Digium card so that I won't
have to have another machine up to receive faxes; anybody ever tried
that? It would be something I've never tried, having an RJ-11 cable
between two cards in the same box. Any grounding/feedback issues with
doing that?

[asterisk-users] Asterisk and Fax

2007-04-02 Thread uxbod
Hi,

I have a requirement for sending and receiving faxes and was wondering the best 
way to achieve it with Asterisk as I only have one phone line.

I currently have a TDM11B in my server (1 x FXO, 1 x FXS), so I was thinking 
that I would need to get a additional FXS module, connect that to a Eicon Fax 
card, and then when receiving a call detect the fax tone and bridge the call to 
the FXS channel.

Would that work okay ? Just seems fax cards are very expensive for what they do.

For an all electronic solution, use fax2mail and mail2fax (from
www.generationd.com).  For a fancier all VOIP solution consider hylafax.

For analog only you can plug your fax machine in as you suggest.  For a step
up, buy an ATA with T.38 capability and plug your fax machine into that.

No. Asterisk does not have fax support and there are no plans to add it.

You can however send the faxes as voice calls, however there is no
assurance as to its reliability. Maybe most will work but some will
without a doubt be predestine to fail.

Check out www.generationd.com for a couple of useful scripts (fax2mail and
mail2fax).  If I interpret your question properly, you looking for scripts.
If in fact you are looking for sendmail/libtiff help, have a search through
the archives.

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Fax part 2

2006-01-17 Thread Michaël Gaudette
Hello,

I've been trying to setup a Fax2Email mecanism on my Asterisk box.  I have
been using the following:

1) An incoming IAX line on Unlimitel (Im not even sure if it's worth
mentionning the provider, but I do just in case)
2) NVBackGroundDetect from Newman Telecom
3) The following extension to test: 
exten =
fax,1,SetVar(FAXFILE=/var/spool/asterisk-fax/${UNIQUEID}.tif)
exten = fax,2,rxfax(${FAXFILE})

4) A fax on a PSTN line to test the fax-to-file part of the system.

Now, the extensions are called when appropriate, and the system seems to
work...until the fax actually tries to send the image, and then I get a LINE
ERROR on the sending fax.  The actual error code goes something like this:
COM.E-7

In IAX.conf, I have configured it as disallow=all and allow=ulaw as
specified in the instructions I found on the following page
http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+fax .

Where should I start looking to resolve this issue?

Mike

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Fax part 2

2006-01-17 Thread Alexander Lopez
 Get a regular POTS line and put a 50.00 fax on it.

There are too many variables,

1.  Does your provider really give you a clean g.711 connection or are they 
routing you from a VoIP based Trunk.

2.  The internet may not provide the bandwidth or the relability you need 
to have a fax connection.

3.  Faxing for me works over IP but it is over a point to point network or 
a network that respects my QoS

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and Fax part 2

2006-01-17 Thread Luki
Just a quick note, make sure /var/spool/asterisk-fax/ exists and is
writable by whatever asterisk runs as. Assuming your connection is
good enough, I had LINE ERRORs because app_rxfax aborted right after
the handshake as it would not write the output file. I think there is
a debug mode in app_rxfax that may shed some light. Otherwise see
Alexander's reply about the connection quality.

Title: Message



There 
is a problem with Avaya that DS1 cards are nor recognizing incoming FAX. 

Using 
unified messaging I must answer the call and if I hear a Faxpulse I have 
to transferthe call to UM.
I want 
Asterisk do this job. Recognize fax and send directly to UM.
In my 
previous mail I used the term "Fax server"to make it 
simple

Thanks

 I wouldn't mind doing so if I knew where this Fax ID information is

That would be the ${REMOTESTATIONID} extension variable.  RxFax sets it, among 
other variables, upon fax reception completion.  Show Application RxFax for 
more information.
