TIPS FAX

[tritron]

I had installed fax using script and I am stuck on getting asterisk to answer the fax call. I have incoming call being routed to custom-fax-iaxmodem
According to extensions_custom.conf it should answer it. But the phone rings and is not being answered.

[custom-fax-iaxmodem]
exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,n,Wait(1)
exten => s,n,SendDTMF(1)
exten => s,n,Dial(IAX2/iax-fax0/${EXTEN})
exten => s,n,Dial(IAX2/iax-fax1/${EXTEN})
exten => s,n,Dial(IAX2/iax-fax2/${EXTEN})
exten => s,n,Dial(IAX2/iax-fax3/${EXTEN})
exten => s,n,Busy
exten => s,n,Hangup

Your inbound route for the Fax DID should look something like this.

Cool I am redirecting my fax line to Custom Destinations Fax Hylafax. I am not using fax detection. I am running asterisk 13.2 IAX2 show peers list

I had changed from s to 999 and it would give me an error message and phone would state busy,

So i added please wait when we connect you. It seems my issue is when it tries to dial my modem it just rings it. I see in /var/log/iaxmodem

Did you reboot after installing the Fax package? I found when I spun up a new system with FreePBX 12 and Asterisk 13.2.0, I needed to reboot after the fax install.

I did the arch linux package for iaxmodem had configuration file for the first modem I deleted that and it fine. Now I used freefax to send fax to myself it stated that the fax was send ok. I see jitter but no fax email was send to me. I recive voicemail faxes fine. How I can debug this.
