Hi Nancy (et Al) I have been investing some time in an attempt to corner this problem. What I did: = Downloading the latest version of Hylafax only to find out my box is running an older version. = Downloading the right version and trying to compile it. Then you find out that the shared library is newer than the configuration allows. = After adapting the configuration file I was able to make a faxgetty with debug options. = Since March 24th that faxgetty is running, not failing yet.
So, if it fails I should have some more insight. At the same time I would like to mention that, on my box, the fax causing the problem produces a broken/damaged/unreadable .tiff file. So, although the logging suggests that things go wrong at the beginning of reception, I'd suspect the problem lies in some special action (Checksum?) needed when closing the TIFF file. This fits with the suggestion of Yaztromo, who suggested that libtiff may be to blame. Also my faxgetty is not failing yet, and I noted that libtiff has been updated recently! Maybe 1 + 1 = 2? Your suggestion to restart is called "respawn" and you used to write one line in /etc/inittab for that. But this is organized differently in recent versions of Ubuntu. Sorry I can't help you there.
