[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Fax part 2

[Michaël Gaudette]

Thanks.  I know that line quality is a factor, and I know I could get a 50$
fax with a PSTN line (that is what I have now).  But I have my reasons to
want to setup a fax over IP, and I want to keep going.  Where do I find info
on this debug mode? Is there a detaild log in Asterisk that show exactly
what happens when the fax is trying to come in?

Also, could this console output help?

Just a quick note, make sure /var/spool/asterisk-fax/ exists and is
writable by whatever asterisk runs as. Assuming your connection is
good enough, I had "LINE ERROR"s because app_rxfax aborted right after
the handshake as it would not write the output file. I think there is
a debug mode in app_rxfax that may shed some light. Otherwise see
Alexander's reply about the connection quality.
