No Fax License Detected, Fax related Dialplan will NOT be generated error

[luckman212]

hi guys,
I've a PiaF 'purple' install, some version info:

Status - 1.7.7 released on 102910
PBX in a Flash Version : 1.7.5.5
FreePBX Version : 2.8.0.4
Running Asterisk Version : Asterisk 1.8.0
Dahdi Source Version : 2.4.0+2.4.0
CentOS release 5.5 (Final) :32 Bit Kernel: 2.6.18-194.17.4.el5

When I go to edit any of my extensions, I see the following error:

Anyone have any idea how to remedy this?
I've got a license (.lic) file for Digium's Free Fax for Asterisk, and I've successfully run their "register" utility which seemed to have completed successfully, but even after rebooting the pbx this error persists.

I have the same problem and would like to fix it, but I don't fax much so it is no big thing until I start publishing my numbers and dedicating one as a fax. -- My fax machine at how (read as Color Laser All-in-one) has a MagicJack for now. And if I could add that as a trunk in Piaf-Purple I'd run over the dongle. If I can't a Voip.ms Number could suffice.

Anyways How to correct FreePBX/Asterisk as not seeing that we DO have a license.

Thanks

Have you figured it out yet? I'm still seeing this error, not sure how to correct it. I've been exploring alternate solution (hylafax/avantfax) in the meantime but would like to get to the bottom of this one too.

edit: I've figured this out! (at least in my case)
I was missing the res_fax_digium.so module.
you have to download this for your cpu architecture from here:
http://www.digium.com/en/docs/FAX/faa-download.php

extract the module into
/usr/lib/asterisk/modules/

reboot your box and you should be all set.
