[hylafax-users] Mandrake 9.2 Hylafax not quite working?

[Peter Verhoeven <Peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

 

I have spent a great deal of time getting Hylafax to work for me to no avail. Maybe someone can offer some advice as I'm running out of ideas. Here's the scenario:

 

Hylafax installed fine, runs ok (i.e. the queue management part etc.).

Modem is set up on ttyS1. Minicom talks with it fine.

Hylafax is using class 1 with it.

I only require outbound service, so I don't setup faxgetty at all. (I have tried just in case but that raised another set of problems; i.e. modem wedged, no FIFO device etc).

Using "faxmodem" script seems fine. Although the faxstat will perpetually report "initializing server".

The senfax job fails. Checking the syslog indicates that the problem is during the postscript conversion, i.e. "no_formatter".

This happens whether I send native PS or Ascii direct from sendfax.

 

Any input much appreciated...

 

Thanks,

Peter Verhoeven
