After test, it seems to be solved on v1.6.0.13... I'm sorry to pollute dev list before test last stable version :-)

Thanks for those information,

The problem is that each fax I receive are terminated like the log I sent... So never exit the loop with a result=0 !!

Every time :
	FAXSTATUS=SUCCESS !!
But :
	res=-1 => Returns -1

What cause the fax session "s" (fax_session *s) match to this condition :
	while (!s->finished) {		//Line 544
???
Where's defined "finished" member of s ?


Excepted this condition, I don't see any place where code detect transmission end...

Is there any change to implement to detect end fax data ? On ast_read function ?

Thanks,

Serge

To my knowledge, all Asterisk applications finish with error if channel was hung up. So the app_fax was designed the same way.
This is to abort further dialplan execution.

I believe, remote party has means to signal that fax transmission is finished without hanging up the call. If it does so, app_fax will return success and Asterisk continues executing dialplan.

What you should do is to handle fax transmission result (successful or not) in h extension. This is explained in https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=10815#c73041

Subject: [asterisk-dev] app_fax.c :: Channel Hangup => Transmission Error but fax transmitted successfully !

Hello,

Is it normal that on app_fax.c, when remote party hangup communication (because fax transmission is terminated), that cause a Transmission error ?

Code in app_fax (line 407 & 566) :

inf = ast_read(s->chan);
if (inf == NULL) {
                ast_debug(1, "Channel hangup\n");
                res = -1;
                break;
}

So, when channels hangup, res = -1

And after (line 654) :

if (res) {
ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Transmission error\n");
                res = -1;
} else if (s->finished < 0) {
                ast_log(LOG_WARNING, "Transmission failed\n");
} else if (s->finished > 0) {
                ast_debug(1, "Transmission finished Ok\n");
}

return res;

Can we detect if communication is hangup after received or during reception to handle error and success ?
So, theres a Transmission error but fax is received well and no other error

See log :

Sequence : Channel hangup => Loop finished, res=-1 => Fax transmitted successfully => Transmission error !!!

Maybe something goes wrong ?!?! mhmm ?
