Hello everybody,

Having followed the list for several years, I've seen this question come up dozens of times, and I'm pretty sure the usual remedy is make sure metamail is installed and re-run faxsetup (so that the various mime-encoding variables in setup.cache get set properly - right?).

However doing that has not helped on this newly installed machine that I'm trying to set up. Here's what I've done (and re-done to make sure I didn't manually change some config file in a dumb way).

1. fresh install of xubuntu

2. update package list

3. I use apt-get to install hylyfax-server - this seems to inherently run faxsetup but with certain sections of it auto-answered by some scripting system - relevant looking lines from the output (full output below): ... Found Quoted-Printable encoder: qp-encode ... [: 231: ==: unexpected operator

4. I re-ran faxsetup manually to see if it would get further - it didn't look any different, aside from allowing me to run faxaddmodem from within faxsetup

5. apt-get install metamail

6. faxsetup: the only apparent difference in the output is:
   Found Quoted-Printable encoder: /usr/bin/mimencode -q

7. I put this into /etc/hylafax/FaxDispatch (gets copied to /var/spool/hylafax/etc/FaxDispatch when /etc/init.d/hylafax restart is run)

NOTIFY_FAXMASTER=errors;
SENDTO=bob@xxxxxxxxxxx;
FILETYPE=pdf;

8. I use a different hylafax server to send myself a test fax. The e-mail comes in with (besides normal headers) only this:

--NextPart12759
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: Quoted-Printable

Content-Description: FAX Document
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="fax000000001.pdf"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

--NextPart12759--

9. If I manually try the faxrcvd command that I see in the incoming fax's log file:

root@johann:/var/spool/hylafax# bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000000001.tif" "ttyS1" "00 0000001" "" Try `/usr/bin/uuencode --help' for more information. root@johann:/var/spool/hylafax#

10. I tried uuencode --help and it says -m is for 64bit encoding. I tried changing all 3 lines in setup.cache that mention uuencode to uuencode -m, and sent another test fax (and/or re-run the faxrcvd command manually) but there is no difference, so I undid that -m change.

Has anyone seen anything similar and can suggest a fix?

Since I will have only rare access to this server, I thought I'd simplify things and work from packages instead of getting hylafax .tar.gz and installing from source.

The " 231 unexpected operator" is of course suspicious but I don't know what sub-process of the apt-get command that is part of, and googling that turned up only a few bsd topics that don't seem related.

Regards.

Martin

Now we are going to probe the tty port to figure out the type
of modem that is attached.  This takes a few seconds, so be patient.
Note that if you do not have the modem cabled to the port, or the
modem is turned off, this may hang (just go and cable up the modem
or turn it on, or whatever).
Probing for best speed to talk to modem: 38400 OK.

About fax classes:

The difference between fax classes has to do with how HylaFAX interacts with the modem and the fax protocol features that are used when sending or receiving faxes. One class isn't inherently better than another; however, one probably will suit a user's needs better than others. Class 1 relies on HylaFAX to perform the bulk of the fax protocol. Class 2 relies on the modem to perform the bulk of the fax protocol. Class 2.0 is similar to Class 2 but may include more features. Class 1.0 is similar to Class 1 but may add V.34-fax capability. Class 2.1 is similar to Class 2.0 but adds V.34-fax capability. HylaFAX generally will have more features when using Class 1/1.0 than when using most modems' Class 2 or Class 2.0 implementations. Generally any problems encountered in Class 1/1.0 can be resolved by modifications to HylaFAX, but usually any problems encountered in Class 2/2.0/2.1 will require the modem manufacturer to resolve it.

If you're unsure and your modem supports it, use Class 1.

Hmm, this looks like a Class 1 modem.
Product code (ATI0) is "TP560 Data/Fax/Voice 56K Modem".
Other information (ATI3) is "TP560 Data/Fax/Voice 56K Modem".

You do not appear to be using faxgetty to notify the HylaFAX scheduler
about new modems and/or their status.  This means that you must use the
faxmodem program to inform the new faxq process about the modems you
want to have scheduled by HylaFAX.  Beware that if you have modems that
require non-default capabilities specified to faxmodem then you should
read faxmodem(8) manual page and do this work yourself (since this
script is not intelligent enough to automatically figure out the modem
capabilities and supply the appropriate arguments).

Restarting HylaFAX server processes.

You have a HylaFAX scheduler process running.  faxq will be
restarted shortly, as soon as some other work has been completed.
Can I terminate this faxq process (11489) [yes]?
Should I restart the HylaFAX server processes [yes]?

/etc/init.d/hylafax start
Not starting HylaFAX daemons since they are already running.

Looks like you have some faxgetty processes running (PIDs are):

11499

It is usually a good idea to restart these processes after running
faxsetup; especially if have just installed new software.  If these
processes are being started by init(8) then sending each of them a
QUIT message with the faxquit command should cause them to be restarted.
Is it ok to send a QUIT command to each process [yes]?
/usr/sbin/faxquit ttyS1

Done verifying system setup.
Updating /etc/hylafax/setup.cache from /var/spool/hylafax/etc/setup.cache.
Updating /etc/hylafax/setup.modem from /var/spool/hylafax/etc/setup.modem.
/var/spool/hylafax
root@johann:~#

I put this into /etc/hylafax/FaxDispatch (gets copied to /var/spool/hylafax/etc/ FaxDispatch when /etc/init.d/hylafax restart is run)

NOTIFY_FAXMASTER=errors;
SENDTO=bob@xxxxxxxxxxx;

The e-mail comes in with (besides normal headers) only this:

If I manually try the faxrcvd command that I see in the incoming fax's log file:

root@johann:/var/spool/hylafax# bin/faxrcvd "recvq/fax000000001.tif" "ttyS1" "00 0000001" "" Try `/usr/bin/uuencode --help' for more information. root@johann:/var/spool/hylafax#
