Yes, that is what i mean.

I am unable to understand completely > what you mean. The /etc/hylafax/config isn't used for client > communication. I send a fax from a client with sendfax to the hylafax server on a seperate PC. This results in the error above. If i add Use2D: no in the /etc/hylafax/config on the server (it is described in the hylafax Docu -> Troubleshouting) then the clients could sent proper faxes with sendfax. Only on the server itself, when i send a fax with sendfax from an server terminal i have only this headline on the outgoing fax. Only the solution in b) with psrip (and without use of Use2D:no) has the effect, that from clients *and* from the server itself could be sent proper faxes.

No. It is in the /etc/hylafax/setup.cache: IMPRIP='/usr/lib/print/psrip' We only changed this to: IMPRIP='/usr/bin/psrip' for the correct path. A friend from german debian list found this. First i don't believe that only *installing* this program has any effect on our problem. The description of psrip doesn't sound to be any helpfully. And grepping over the hylafax scripts/programms shows that psrip isn't used anyway. But: if i *remove* psrip, restart hylafax and send a fax then i got the error with the headline. When i *reinstall* psrip, restart hylafax all faxes a properly. I could reproduce that. Also the "solution" with Use2D above. I look if i could make a session/client tracing with strace where this psrip is involved. > > [...] > > So it's not clear if this bug is a hylafax-server bug or even a > > capi4hylafax. > > Unfortunatly I do not own a capi device so I cannot test it. I already > received some complains about hylafax 4.2.1 and capi4hylafax, see > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=293540 Thanks, this bug descripes my also reported bug where correctly sent faxes not been reomved from the sent queue. The headline problem in this report *may* also be only a problem when uses capi4hylafax. But a questions: the postscript files in docq are allmost correct (with correct content). The error with only headline must result when this ps file is convertet to a fax file before sending. Does capi4hylafax have it's own procedure or is this not a process in hylafax-server (ps2fax, *2fax)? And a friend on german debian list reported that he went back to hylafax version 4.2.0-16. With this version he has *not* the problem that sent faxes get not removed from the queueu. But with this version he also must use "Use2D: no" to sent a full content fax. So this is a hint, that the problem comes not from hylafax-server. Maybe it's better to move the bug report to capi4hylafax? So i hope my notes in this mail are a little better for you ;-) > > Bye, > Giuseppe Bye, Gerhard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
