Re: [hylafax-users] Yet another instance of "No response to PPS repeated 3 times"

[Eliran Itzhak <elirani@xxxxxxxxx>]

Downgrading would be a problem as all my scripts and hooks are updated to the new version.
I think its not OS related, As I started with Fedora 6 or 7, and now, 3 years later, at Fedora 12.
I wish someone with some low level fax know-how will seat down and try to fix this.
I'm going to buy new modems, but fixing this bug would make my USR modems usable and reliable again.

Thanks.

before even reading the link, my suggestion was to downgrade a version.  After reading the link, that is what the other person did.  I downgrading possible in your situation?
But I agree the problem should be fixed...apologies that I don't know what the cause it.
Does it seem to be a LInux distro /version related issue?

Hello again. I found someone else with the same problem, having PPM repeated errors after upgrading Hylafax. http://www.hylafax.org/archive/2008-01/msg00451.php
Is there any chance that the problem can be fixed by software changes ?

Thanks,

By the way, being that Class 1 relies on the software to handle processing, does it indicate the PPS problem could be solved by Software ?
I haven't got another fax software to try with, but it would be interesting to test.

Thanks.

Hello everyone.

I'm using USR modems, and mainly happy with the setup, But I get "No response to PPS repeated 3 times" with some of the numbers I'm trying to send a fax to.
Seems like a common problem with Hylafax and USR modems, and searching and following 3 result pages with google, I wasn't able to make it better.

Nothing new until here :-)

What I just found out is that i WAS able to send a fax to some of these number before I upgraded to hylafax-5.1.8-1.i386. The version I was using before the upgrade might have been hylafax-5.1.8-1fc4.i386.rpm

Anyway, I've made some tests today, and looked at my logs, Numbers I used to send a fax to are now giving me "No response to PPS repeated 3 times".

I would appreciate if someone could shed some light to the problem, and maybe even suggest a workaround /fix to this problem.

Warm regards,

Eliran.
