QUESTION PIAF 2.0.6.5 FAX install

[Gertjan]

Hi,

I'm have already installed a lot of PIAF installations but only with telephones.

Now i want to configure the fax to mail.
Can anyone give me a good toturial how i get this installed?
So i have 2 trunks, one trunk for the telephones and one for the fax.
When i receiving a fax i want to receive it in my mail program.

For sending a fax wich options i have?
Fax with my e-mail program, fax with a winprint software?

thanks in advance.

Have you installed Incredible Fax? If so it is very easy to do what you are asking about. Look at this link: http://nerdvittles.com/?p=6072

If you need more details let me know as I recently reloaded a PBX and implemented this again.

 

[Gertjan]

no i don't installed incredible fax, is this necessary to install this.
I will try that today and let you know how it goes.
Thanks in advance!

 

[Gertjan]

when i run this:
cd /root
wget http://incrediblepbx.com/incrediblepbx11.gz
gunzip incrediblepbx11.gz
chmod +x incrediblepbx11
./incrediblepbx11

my box says that it needs incredible pbx 11/asterisk 11..
So am i right that when i install pbx i must use the option incredible pbx with no support?
It's the first time is use incredible pbx so i am a newby

 

[Gertjan]

ok i now installed incredible pbx 11 and incredible fax.
So now i have the avantfax option and everything in mij panel.

i added my fax trunk and incoming and outgoing route for the fax number.
But how can i test if everything is properly working?

if i go to http://ip adres of box/avantfax
I send a fax i see the ttyIAX0 please wait, sending a fax...
But when i look in mij -rvvv i see he's trying to send the document again and again..
thanks

Look in your cdr to see if the fax is making it to your trunk. On my outbound route I used the caller ID of the iax fax extensions to properly route them. I think it is like +0000000000 but I'll have to check my system.

Hi,

I think i'm already there for receiving faxes.
In attachement the error i get, is this something with the e-mail?
I already did the things in the article for /etc/hosts
But i still get this error.

sending fax was successful.

 

[Jake]

Does a incoming fax pdf show up in the avantfax portal? If so then it might be a problem sending out email. Do you have emails sent as a notification for new voicemails?

 

[Gertjan]

what do i exactly got to change so the e-mail is properly working?
In my network i have my own exchange mail system.

so i think about relay server?

Is there a way to send a test mail in command line?
Because i don't receive my voicemails in e-mail either.

Hi,

i got my fax working so now i receive faxes to my mail.

But i still got a problem for sending faxes.
If i login to http://ip-adres of pbx/avantfax

and i sent my fax i see in outbox - "busy signal detected"

I think its somthing with my outbound routes.
The only thing i did there was my dial plan as "X."

should i do somthing else with my outbound route?

 

[Jake]

Post your asterisk log of an outgoing fax
