Re: [hylafax-users] Hylafax Setup Error with the modem ...



Hi,

I have resolved the issues with modem and unix server,
1) I replaced the nonworking cable between modem and unix server
2) modem configuration file - I was using the file with name config.ttySb
After I change this file from config.ttySb to config.ttyb and faxgetty run,
I got the faxstat as given below,


     HylaFAX scheduler on sfocstsdut01: Running
     Modem ttyS1 (+1.415.913.5511): Running and Idle

Sending the fax is working perfectly now.

    Thanks and Regards
    Shrinivas Kanaki

I'm not sure if the following instructions are what you are looking for: 1) Open a new xterm and run the following in it: tail -f /var/adm/messages

2) Restart faxgetty process.

3) Copy and paste the new lines that appear in the xterm that you opened
   in step (1)

I've had 2 occasions where I've got the "modem appears to be wedged" error. The first time, the faxaddmodem script did not run to completion. It hung for some reason and each time I tried to receive a fax, I got that error. It turned out that I was not able to communicate properly with the modem. I used the "cu" program to fix the communication problem between the system and the modem. My system runs FreeBSD. On solaris, I believe, the equivalent "cu" program is called "tip".


The second time around, I was using the serial port as a console and I had getty running on it. Since getty came up before faxgetty did, I was getting the "modem appears to be wedged..." error. I disabled getty and the problem disappeared.

Hope the above helps.
